I
am an avid collector of UK map postcards and started designing my own
as a hobby, concentrating on the East of England because I felt that
compared to other regions such as the South East and South West, not
enough map postcards existed - and of course, because I live here!
I was inspired by the Lily White map postcards which covered some cities, to start featuring towns and villages that had never had a map postcard done, and the result is "Tony's Postcards". This is not really a commercial venture, I spend time designing them (or sourcing public domain images where the copyright has expired) and then pay to have them printed as proper postcards. I add one to my collection and one to my wall gallery and the rest I try to sell to recover my costs, and yes, make a little bit of money if I can - always useful! Only 100 of each design are printed and 98 are offered up for sale here and on eBay. Once they're gone they're gone!
PRICES TP001 to TP024 individually are £1.00 each + P&P
Comments from some of my buyers... "I think it's obvious that the postcard designs have been created by a collector rather than a run-of-the-mill graphic designer. The colours are harmonious and the designs are symmetrically pleasing to other collectors. Added to the fact that the subject matter is a little out of the ordinary is what I find most pleasing, plus knowing I've got the FULL set" "They are excellent postcards and very unusual- everybody needs these in their collection!"
