I have an interest in old post cards depicting people with weaponry though I do refuse to pay the high prices many are asking for them. These cards are, even if staged for the photographer, a great insight in to times past and usually offer a good representation of how things once were and in turn helps our study and understanding of the things we collect.

Hi Gav,

Prices of old postcards can rise very high, but this one didn't get out for that high.
I like old images and old postcards, indeed for the reason you mention.

And this one puzzled me a bit, but after Arjan's comment all pieces of the puzzle fall in place...

Kind Regards,
Maurice

Indeed Arjan's knowledge base, references and resources are invaluable, thanks Arjan ;-)
