Hi All,
Hope you are all well.

I was hoping someone may be able to help me out as my Mom found an old postcard which is pre stamped with a penny red???
The stamp is not postmarked as the postcard was addressed but not posted.

The pics below will hopefully help and I will mention the reverse of the postcard is blank and not written upon.

So does anyone have any idea if we are now millionaires or the proud owners of a fancy piece of card to light the BBQ with?

Regards
Andrew

It's a Great Britain pre-printed postal card, very common.

Welcome to the forum Andrew

As previously stated, it is a postal card. They are collectible but would be preferred with a cancel to signify its' use. This appears to have gone through the mailing system w/o a cancellation.

Don't start the barbie with it just yet. There might be someone who wants it
