REAL PHOTO CARDS by C.M. PRICE of DOVER

#1 Post by Ross Ewington » Mon Jul 22, 2013 10:00 pm

These are the first real photo postcards I have seen produced by C.M. Price of Dover.

Both cards are unused and and have the same photographer's handstamp on the back.

Judging by the 'stamp box' format and the parade in the top card, I would date these cards as having been produced in the early to mid-1920s.

Has anybody got and other cards by Price or know anything about him?

Another C.M.Price photo. Main street of Dover in the snow. No date unfortunately. Very similar view as the second card in the previous post.

Just noticed on an online auction site - vendor states that the photographer was C.M. Price
