Postmen of the British Empire


Postcard sent by John (the UK). It reads: Postmen of the British Empire: The Mombasa Uganda mail carrier and his guards, the others carry food and clothing for the journey.

Like the sender, who bought the postcard at a postcard fair, I wish I could see the other postcards of the series.

  1. It must have been quite something in the days before the telephone to receive mail, particularly if you were living far away from home.
