EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to 1904 with this stunning print of a Thomas Cook Vesuvius Postcard. This unique postcard captures the essence of travel during the early 20th century, showcasing the iconic Funicular that Cook had built for their growing tours.
Imagine being one of the eager travellers rushing to the kiosk at the top of Vesuvius to purchase and immediately send off this postcard, featuring breathtaking pictures of the volcano, a horse-drawn omnibus, and a detailed map of the summit. The Italian publisher behind this masterpiece remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to its historical significance.
