Now here is one of those picture postcards guaranteed to
upset someone.
It was produced by Tuck & Sons and marketed around 1905,
although the actual image maybe older.
It is entitled the Technical School and was part of the series
of twelve cards issued as YE ETCHED MANCHESTER.
And if that were not enough the description on the front of the card runs, Manchester, Technical School, Salford, with the added insult that the
designer incorporated the coat of arms of Manchester rather than Salford.
This may I suppose make it a collector’s curiosity and one that seems to have been corrected on later cards.
