Edinburgh from Craigleith Quarry

Tuck's "Oilette" series

Here is  a postcard from the Raphael Tuck & Sons' "Oilette" Edinburgh series (7293).

This card reproduces a painting by John Blair.  The card has not been sent through the post.

Most of Tuck's "Oilette" cards include brief descriptions of the views, on the backs of the cards.  However, there is no such description on this card.

This is one of three distant views of Edinburgh and its castle that I have seen from the "Oilette" Edinburgh series (7293).

Here are the other two:
