Scottish National Exhibition -  Edinburgh   -  1908

Thank you to Ian McAnally for allowing me to reproduce this postcard of the Scottish International Exhibition held at Saughton Park, Edinburgh in 1908.

This postcard is one of Valentine & Sons' Souvenir Post Card Series.  It is an artist's sketch of an aerial view of the exhibition.  It is an official exhibition postcard, with the exhibition emblem in the upper-left corner and the exhibition franking in the upper-right corner on the back of the card.

The exhibition opened on May 1, 1908.

The postcard was posted on May 19, 1908 to Cowdenbeith, Fife, Scotland.

The message reads:  "Spending the day here.  Will write afterwards."

Here is the back of the postcard
