The Front Avenue, Khartoum
G.N. Morhig card No. 334. This entry marks the end of our Morhig/Sudan Times and other publishers’ series of cards of The Sudan from the early 1900s. They were accumulated and sent by a British Army officer to his wife, son, and daughter to document his term of service. While he may not have been the keenest of observers, he took care to identify and explain what he could, in the absence of greater captions. If you–yes, we’re speaking directly to you–have a special interest in keeping these cards together as a collection, please let us know and we can work something out. For this card (and nearly all the others, due to the written notations on the reverse), Grade: 4

Khartoum, Gordon Statue
At first we assumed this (unused) card showed a statue in London. But then we looked more closely, and the background is hardly London. Then we went to Wikipedia. General Gordon has an impressively long entry, and buried within that entry is this (slightly abridged): “The Corps of Royal Engineers, Gordon’s own Corps, commissioned a statue of Gordon on a camel. It was exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1890 and then erected in Brompton Barracks, Chatham, the home of the Royal School of Military Engineering, where it still stands. Much later a second casting was made. In 1902 it was placed at the junction of St Martin’s Lane and Charing Cross Road in London. In 1904 it was moved to Khartoum, where it stood at the intersection of Gordon Avenue and Victoria Avenue. It was removed in 1958, shortly after the Sudan became independent. This is the figure which, since 1960, stands at the Gordon’s School in Woking.” So, to make it clear, this is a postcard from Sudan and has Khartoum attribution on the back. But the statue is, apparently, back in England. Grade: 1

This unused card has no printing on the reverse, and someone’s name has been erased. We do not know, and cannot guarantee, that the card was ever in Sudan. Grade: 3
