Kay Cottle's Postcard Collection

This remarkable collection of old postcards was put together over many years by Kay Cottle. Her husband, John Gunner, hopes to bequeath the collection to a local museum. In the main, the back of the postcards are blank but occasionally, when the message is legible or interesting, it has been reproduced.
