1. Title: "A Journey Across the Seas: Pickfords Foreign & General Express Travel Tickets, 1906" This postcard, dated 1906, showcases the allure of international travel during the early 20th century, as advertised by Pickfords Foreign & General Express. The Pickfords brand, a renowned name in the United Kingdom, is known for its rich history, having been established in the 17th century and is considered one of the oldest functioning companies in the country. The postcard features a fantasized image of a horse-drawn wagon, adorned with the Pickfords logo and the inscription "Foreign & General Express." The wagon appears to be loaded with various large trunks and suitcases, symbolizing the company's expertise in handling and transporting customers' belongings overseas. The image exudes an air of adventure and excitement, inviting potential travelers to embark on their journeys with confidence, knowing that their possessions would be in capable hands. The reverse side of the postcard displays a list of destinations served by Pickfords Foreign & General Express, including popular ports in Europe, the Americas, and Asia. The travel tickets, which are also advertised, would have provided customers with the assurance of a smooth and efficient travel experience, from the pickup of their belongings to their delivery at their destination. This postcard is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of international travel and the role that Pickfords played in making it possible for people to move their belongings across vast distances. The image, with its horse-drawn wagon and exotic destinations, transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate the romance and adventure of a bygone era.
