Thank you to Jane Insley, Science Museum, London who wrote, on reading a note about this postcard on the EdinPhoto web site,  and before seeing the postcard:

"From the reference number you give in your listing, I am fairly certain that this postcard is one of the first sixteen dioramas commissioned for the Museum of Practical Geology when it moved from Jermyn St to South Kensington in 1935, and was made by Herbert Cawood."
