Summary

[edit]
Description This is a curiosity from the late 1890s, an undivided back postcard probably printed in Germany and one of a number of postcards in a book of postcards. The printers have flipped the original photograph and the west front of Westminster Abbey is presented back to front. The building on the extreme right is Westminster Hospital.
