U.K., 29 Vintage Postcards.

Various 29 vintage postcards from Tony. They were sent using 2 envelopes. I was surprised when I got them, yet I was very glad :D Some of the postcards are written and stamped and it was dated back in 1980's and 1990's :)) 































Envelopes and stamps.


U.K., The Cascade.

Another postcard from Tony in England (: It shows The Cascade and Cascade House in Chatsworth, Derbyshire. The Cascade is a set of stone steps over which water flows from a set of fountains at the top. It was built in 1696 and rebuilt on a grander scale in 1701. In 1703 a grand baroque Temple or Cascade House was added at the top. It has 24 cut steps, each slightly different and with a variety of textures so that each gives a different sound when water runs over and down them. Got it on July 13th too.



U.K., Duchess of Devonshire.

This postcard that Tony sent shows Georgiana, Duchess of Devonshire painting by Maria Cosway. The painting now hangs in Chatsworth House. The last postcard I got in June.


U.K., Langland Bay.

A postcard that was sent by Wency when she was in Swansea, Wales doing her placement test. It shows the view of Langland Bay, a coastal holiday resort in Gower, near to Swansea. Got it on June.

U.K., Space View.

This postcard from Wency shows the Galaxy NGC 4639, views from the Hubble telescope. I'm no astronomy fans, but I like this picture^^ The stamp is also something because it's not the usual Queen's head one. Got the postcard on 11th of May, alongside with 4 other postcards :)
