| Description | Picture postcard sent from Lille, France to Miss D. Chamberlain [1911-1992; daughter of Neville Chamberlain], Westbourne, Birmingham, and addressed 'My very dear Dorothea' from an unidentified correspondent who is probably a relative. The view on the postcard is of war damage to buildings in Station Street, Ypres in France. The message on the postcard refers to the correspondent and Dorothea's Aunt Lilian and Uncle Alfred 'motoring' in France and seeing the places the Germans destroyed during the First World War. The card is dated 20 September with no year date but the postmark indicates that it was sent in 1919. |
