Before winter leaves and the last of the 'art cards'
Click on images to enlarge.
Just before we leave winter behind here are a couple of cards of the city in winter's grip and the last of the art cards.
'The Avenue' leading to the underpass and the Sands Centre. Eden Terrace is on the left and apart from the one man in the scene not a soul is stirring. Card posted 1905.
Victoria Park around 1905, the houses to the left are Solway Terrace and Dacre Road, demolished in 1964.
Probably taken on the same day as the first winter scene card, this is the scene from The Scaur. No play today in the cricket or bowls. Again posted in 1905.
'English St. Looking South'.
Circa. 1904.
Produced by Thurnams of Carlisle.
A view of the castle.
Another Thurnam's card 'The Cathedral from the Deanery'.
'The Guildhall, Carlisle' , looking down Fisher St.
The artist is H. Hadfield Cubley (see link)http://www.postcardcollecting.co.uk/backart.htm
