The wreck of the 9th Avenue

I did a double take when I discovered the date of this accident on the elevated railway in Manhattan – September 11th 1905. The account of the accident

The Garden Grill Room

A lovely postcard from the famous postcard publishers; Tuck’s. This one is of The Garden Grill Room at the May Fair Hotel in London. The card has a texture that makes it appear to be an oil painting. It seems that this postcard was quite popular. The May Fair is still there and was recently modernised. Any one for tea?
