Label TextThis postcard, depicting a row of houses on a London street, was sent to show the neighbourhood the sender had just moved to. The inscription on the back of the postcard reads "Dear Brother-Sister this is the street where we live sorry I can't get a post card with our little house; these houses are right opposite mine".
