A PRINCE’S POSTCARD

What is undoubtedly the largest collection of picture postcards In the world Is the property of the Prince of Wales’ eldest son. The collection includes cards from every country In the world, and Is now growing almost too bulky for convenient handling, there being more than 10,000 cards. One of the most Interesting albums Is that containing the cards sent him by his parents during their recent trip around the world.

This collection surely must have included at least a few postcards of Canada. Here on the Official Website of the British Monarchy is a bit about the British Royal Stamp collections, which include stamps collected by George V and his son, Edward VIII. Nothing about postcards…perhaps auctioned long ago?
