    These postcards are from my Grandfather's collection, they were sent between him & his soon to be first wife. She passed away apx. ten years later, leaving him with a young son. The centre card was posted as "Tiny" was leaving the UK for Canada, the image is of a famous English Actress from the era.
    I hope you enjoy them.

      Thanks for the Love & the comment bratjjd, I'm glad that I can share these pc's, I will post some more.
      Are you getting old & forgetful or is your collection to big. :)

      I have also been scanning old photos and PC's it was slow going so I bought a faster scanner, it's still going to take years I think. I want to scan them all so that I can save copies with other family members in case something happens to the originals.

      I love them! The first one is great!
    11. walksoftly walksoftly, 10 years ago
      Thanks Jewels they are great old cards aren't they!
    12. Jewels Jewels, 10 years ago
      Hi walks, thank you lol! As I was saying, these are great indeed. I have been buying those English toast racks to display old photos and postcards and it looks pretty cool! :)
    13. walksoftly walksoftly, 10 years ago
      I assume that they are vintage " English toast racks".
    14. Jewels Jewels, 10 years ago
      Yes, I have one that is porcelain, the others are some kind of metal. If I see them when I'm out and about, I grab them
    15. walksoftly walksoftly, 10 years ago
      I would need dozens of them to display all of my Grandfather's postcards :-)
    16. Jewels Jewels, 10 years ago
      They will be fun to find! Also, some of those vintage flower frogs are good for the job as well :)
    17. walksoftly walksoftly, 10 years ago
      I don't think I've ever seen an English toast rack for sale, but then I haven't been looking either!

      Thanks for the love chrissylovescats, Pat & surfdub.

      Oh, I hear you, there was one at one of the thrift shops I frequent, I ignored it for several days because really I wasn't sure what it was, then one day, it dawned on me that I could stack paper things in it, so it got to come home with me :) Now I recognize them and snatch them up
