Hertfordshire Post Card History Dating Early Picture Postcards |
Can you help |
Introduction
Many of the surviving views of Hertfordshire Towns and Villages of the early 20th century come from picture post cards and quite a few are used to illustrate this web site. The aim of these pages is to provide information on how cards may be dated, with examples from Hertfordshire.It should be noted that I am comparatively new to the field of postcard collecting and any comments from established collectors would be helpful (use tell me). Much of my information on publishers comes from Picture Postcards and their Publishers by Anthony Byatt, The Dictionary of Picture Postcards in Britain 1894-1939 by A. W. Coysh, and Picture Postcards of the Golden Age by Tonie and Valmai Holt
