Your chance to pick up an iconic Westminster Bridge postcard at a value price. This one was mailed in 1960. Stamp and postcard are there, and some postmark ink transfer on the front. Serrated edges. Grade: 2

Tower of London, Groups of 16th Century Armour
This is London Stereoscopic Company’s card, unnumbered as far as we can see. Not postally used, but with a long message from 1913 completely covering the message and address areas. We like the message, which would not likely be written in contemporary times: “…don’t come to London, the smooth and easy road to Hades doesn’t begin to be lined with the temptations that the shops of London hold out …” (There’s much more.) Grade (only because of the writing): 4

The Tower of London
Still looking for Tower of London postcards? Here’s a nice one, mailed in 1924 with stamp, postmark, and this in the message: “The Tower is a rather gloomy place …” Well, it was a prison, after all. Grade: 2

Unused Frith’s Series card 57307. Long ago, for some reason, someone pencilled an X through the header on the reverse. You could probably erase this. Grade: 4

Southampton, The Dolphin Hotel
Unused R.A.P. Co. Trust House Series card No. 97 (“The Seal of Artistic Excellence”), very old. To our bemusement, the hotel is still around, now called Mercure Southampton Centre Dolphin, with average online reviews but it must be doing something right to have stuck around for so long. Grade: 1

Code: 20516348

Other churches have claimed the honor, including Everdon, Northamptonshire. Gray is buried at St Giles. John Penn of Stoke had built a large monument displaying the Elegy nearby.” As for the card, unused, aged, unattributed, unnumbered, and clean. Grade: 1

Yet another Isle of Man Post Office transport Stamp Card No. 4(5), commemorating the 80th Anniversary of the Isle of Man T.T. Motorcycle Races 1987 and 100th Anniversary of St. John Ambulance Brigade. We do hope the designers appreciate the irony here. Unused. Grade: 1

Code: 20516350
Price: $4.00
Winchester, Church of St. Cross
From an official website, “The Church of St Cross in Winchester is the private chapel of the Hospital of St Cross, but it also acts as the parish church to the St Faith’s community.” This is Frith’s Series card 55881, not postally used but with an ancient message covering the reverse. Grade: 4

Code: 20516357
Price: $0.50
Bridlington, Princes Parade
Most likely more than a century ago, someone wrote Part 2 of a very long message that covers the back of this postally unused card. In fact the message is as interesting as the card. Grade: 4

Code: 20516358
Price: $2.00
Scrooby Church (St. Wilfrid’s)
We intuit this unused real-photo card shows what is now St. Wilfrid’s because we did some Google homework. Significant abrasions along the right front edge, but the character of the card is still there. Grade: 3

Code: 20516359
Price: $2.00
Ilfracombe, Capstone Parade
Unused A.J.V.I. Series card 86788. A small piece of paper is stuck to the reverse bottom edge. Otherwise, nice. Grade: 4
