Greetings, Please take a look at .... http://www.uq.net.au/~zzhsoszy/ips/unknown.html .... and see if anyone can decipher the writing with a view to identifying who the subjects are. TIA Cheers, Henry PS Many thanks to Pabitra for the articles (and photos) on the Mughals. If I'm reading it correctly, the Tucy aren't agnatically Mughal by descent, it seems Begum Laila Umahani is the last of this line.
Dear Henry, Howdy,I do collect memoribilia ,stamps,etc of the Princely states & lives in Jamnagar(erstwhile Nawanagar),hence could make out something of what you sent. The First one is in Gujarati and says ...GOVINDLAL & CO.,AHMEDABAD...From BOMBAY ,dated 18.12.'73. The Second one is also in Gujarati & Says...THAKAR HARJI RATANSHI GOKALDASS dated 22.4.'74. Both the dates must either VS or 1800's.And,the pictures must be of leading traders or merchants. The third is a Post card with writing in Hindi, saying...MAHARAJA DHIRAJ..the name cannot be read dated VS 1914...was there a state called DHILWARA or something similar?The Post card has been printed by a firm in Bombay. Hope that was of help to you.
