This image is a coloured postcard: These coloured postcards were produced by the Frith company in the 1950s and 60s, in the earliest days of coloured postcard production, and were printed using a process called collo-colour. Although the results look quite basic to modern eyes, used to the wonders of the modern printing process, these postcards have a certain period charm as delightfully nostalgic ephemera items from the not-so-distant past.

Sparked a Memory for you?

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

I believe my Grandfather bought the Garreg Lwyd in 1946 and it was my fathers home when he was young. Does anyone know anything about it's early history? I know what it became in the 70's and what it is today as I still frequently visit Benllech.
I spent many holidays in Benllech, although Golden Sands holiday camp needs bringing in to the 21st century as it is still the same as it was in the 70s.
