Postcards were one of the biggest crazes of the early twentieth century. The first picture postcard appeared in 1894 and their low cost, huge range of designs and an efficient postal system offering up to four deliveries a day soon made them a national craze.

This Easter card was sent to Prince Edward of Wales, later King Edward VIII, from Paris.
