Old Wellington in Colour - From Hundred-Year-Old Picture Postcards

Small crush mark to lower spine/back cover, otherwise good secondhand condition.

Old picture-postcards of Wellington strike a soft spot because many of the views are recognisable despite the hundred-year gap, offering a glimpse of a half-familiar past. The charm and distinctive look of these pictures comes from their delicate colouring. They started life as black and white prints and were transformed by skilled European printers.
