A short series with few words looking at the postcards we sent from Woolwich, Greenwich and Eltham.
Now I don’t think this scene of the park had changed over much between when it was sent to Miss L E Thompson of Shepherds Bush and when I played there a full half century and a bit later.
It is unclear whether “C S” lived in Greenwich. He sent the card from west London just after midday in the August of 1902 and confined himself to the simple message “Isn’t it nice.”
