OF 125 HOTEL INTERIOR POSTCARDS

Wholesale lot of 125 hotel interiors on old regular-size
postcards. Good variety of locations--Algeria, British Columbia, Canary Islands, Cuba,
England, France, Isle of Man, Québec, Spain--to name a few. Ideal lot for the student or
teacher of hotel architecture, or as a source of ideas for an interior designer. Most
unused, but those that are used & cancelled date mostly 1910 - 1944, and that is
indicative of the age of most of the others. Nothing tatty, minor faults here and there.
Example shown left: The Grand Hotel Quisisana patio, Tenerife Canary Islands. Example
shown right: The George Hotel lounge, Winchester England. Typical retail prices would be
$2.00 to $4.00 each, so you can't go wrong at $135.00 plus postage. iwa
