Post Cards - B
& D
Leith Docks |
Front of the Postcard
Here is an early postcard with a view of sailing ships in Leith Docks.
It was published by B & D and numbered 2356. Did they really publish
so many postcards?
The card has an undivided back (indicating 1902 or earlier) and lots of
room for the message to be written beside the picture on the front of the
card. |
Back of the Postcard
The lettering on the back of this card is
similar to that on other cards that I have seen produced by publishers
unnamed. Was this a recommended form and colour of heading for early
postcards, or did they all originate from the same source?
