Shite Postcards

Brazzaville, Belgian Congo.

 

[Junkman]

One would think there are more rewarding subjects for postcards to be found in Wien.

 

[Junkman]

I wonder what that drop head coupe is.

Les Deux Alpes operated ex RATP Renault TNC 6es as ski shuttles.

 

 

 

Going by the assorted chod, they apparently lived a long and happy life after their Parisian duties.

El Lay.

A picture of Sachertorte?

[Junkman]

At least the Fiaker seems to be drawn by Lippizaners. It can't get much more wienerisch than that.

Mit Schlag....

Sacher mit Schlag?

 

Now you made an Austrian homesick.

I'd forgotten what Smallbrook Queensway looked like when it was a useful road.

Marlborough possibly as that green coach looks like a Southdown Motor Services Weyman Castilion bodied Leyland Leopard.

Another Wolseley at Yarmouth here:

 

Wellington Pier, Gt Yarmouth old postcard (early '70s) by Spottedlaurel, on Flickr

 

And one with various other Farinas the other side of the country:

 

The Promenade, Rhos-on-Sea old postcard early 1970s by Spottedlaurel, on Flickr

[mercrocker]

Some nice multi-Farina action going on there - have to add those to my collection!   Also, Rhos-on-Sea looks like its hosting a nice piece of mid-sixties RHD Yank wagon-ness too.  Plymouth Belvedere?

[64A60]

I'd love a 16/60 in Rose Taupe and Sandy Beige- a proper bit of 60's Colourmaster seaside town postcard street furniture (If that makes any sense?).

 

 

Wolseley 16/60 - PLJ 842G by Brian Farrington, on Flickr

 

I'll put scans of some recent ebay purchases on here soon...

I'd thought some sort of AMC, but suggestion of Chrsyler Valiant on Flickr looks to be on the right lines.

My local town, Market Square Petersfield @1958, borderline excitement as we have Austin Atlantic and Chummy action.

[Junkman]

Golling an der Salzach with hot Gendarmerie Steyr Puch Interceptor Unit:

 

[mercrocker]

He nabbed those pesky cyclists with the extra 150cc though!

[64A60]

Marine Drive, Clacton, circa 1962 (FB Victor in distance). What appears to be a 1948 Minx in front of the 300e and a Cros spec Bedford van in front of the MO Oxford?

 

Slightly up the road now to Marine Parade East circa 1966, do a right at this crossroads and you'll be at Clacton Pier. Different editions of this card have the Skoda in grey. Double Wolseley 16/60 content too!

 

On the same stretch of road is Kings Parade, Holland-On-Sea from around the same period. Double Farina content again and the Super Snipe has the same London XYV registration as the Squires... 

 

Out of Clacton, through some countryside and "The Gates" we find ourselves in a busy looking Connaught Avenue, Frinton circa 1961.
