Goldenacre Postcards |
Date of Postcards?
A
little more research will be needed to discover the dates of the
postcards in this set. When was Burns Stationery Depot based
at Goldenacre? The Edinburgh & Leith Post Office Directories
may help to answer this question.
Some of the vehicles, shops, etc. in this set of cards may help
to establish the date of the cards. There are a couple of
cards of the Boswall estate in this set. The estate looks to
me to have been recently built in these photos. If so, the
postcards would have been published around the 1920s. |

Granton History Group
"I was interested to see the set of
Granton postcards on the EdinPhoto website. The Granton
History Group was given some of these cards and others some time
back. We made
comparative views in 2004, and added them to this page on the
Granton History Group web site."
