Collectors meeting discusses north-east social history

Pictorial postcards a-plenty were cleverly presented by Ian Murray in his talk to Grampian Postcard Collectors club meeting in the Masonic hall, Kintore on Monday evening.

Club business began with the AGM where the current committee were re-elected with Brian Watt remaining as chairman.

Ian's presentation was a social document of Aberdeenshire lives in such places as Clatt, Ryhnie,Oyne, Insch, Cumminston, Gamrie, Rosehearty, Pennan to name a few..

A confirmed Deltioligist (postcard collector) Ian modestly described his evening show as a mere tip of the iceberg.

After his talk members enjoyed the opportunity to have a 'swap shop' of their card collections.

The club meets in Kintore on the second Monday of the month.
