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'm trying to make contact with any one who went to Chislehurst secondary school for boys in Edgebury . From 1963 to 1969
We lived in The Meadow, the road opposite Rush Pond, for 30years. Our house is not there anymore, it was demolished and a much bigger house on the site. We had a dear little cottage, St Anne's. I still belong to the Chislehurst Society. My late husband was the secretary of the Society for many years. I loved Chislehurst, but now enjoy living in Pluckley, Kent,
I am trying to make contact with anyone who lived on or knew the Bamford family (Robert, Rose and their children Robert junior, June & John) who were living on Chorleywood Crescent in the 1956. The Bamfords are relatives. Any help would be very much appreciated.
I remember Chislehurst with very very fond memories. I grew up there with my family; mum, dad and brothers. Lived there from 1967, only so many months old until I got married. Wonderful place and sometimes pass through still today. HAPPY TIMES!!
