I am currently sorting out my large collection of Hertfordshire post cards and earlier CDV & Cabinet photographs and plan to expand this area of the web site to help you to date old photographs and post cards. Over the last three month I have updated the following pages - in some cases adding significant new material while in others simply add an earlier postal date for a post card.
For more information
Expect many further updates over the coming months
If you can let me know of other relevant material to include do not hesitate to contact me.
