Victoria B.C., This book is really a "home" book since we live in Victoria, B.C. Canada. it is a beautiful city as can be seen by the twenty four vintage post cards from my collection. They include the Parliament Buildings, Butchart Gardens, Beacon Hill Park and "The Causeway". It also has a fold out page for other Victoria memorabilia you might have. Actual album size is 32/32'x28/32". Butchart Gardens, Butchart Gardens is one of Victoria's most popular tourist attractions. It contains eight pages of photos I took in the late summer when the flowers were incredibly colorful.

Actual size is 32/32x27/32" England, These beautiful sepia photos, nine altogether, are the most wonderful photos taken in 1903 by Frank Richardson. The original album I purchased years ago at an auction. He created the album as a thank you gift for Clara and Ivor Lucas for the wonderful summer he spent with them visiting the areas of Chippenham, Westbury, Bristol and Port Eynon etc. in England. The photos include the Village blacksmith shoeing the Village horse, rows of cottages near Swansea and King Street in Bristol with a tavern on the corner. He was a wonderful photographer. Actual size of the album is 21/32"x28/32" |
