    3. Hi Jacqui, Glad to hear that you have found more about the origins of this card, as I must admit it had me intrigued, as there were certain anomalies about it, particularly as Jim had pointed out that it showed the cabmen's shelter, demolished 1910, yet the hemlines of the women clearly indicated a later period than that. Jacqui, let me know if you wish this image to be removed from the website.
