During November the bureau is home to my Blackpool postcard collection. Over the years I have accumulated many postcards depicting my home town, a holiday resort in the north of England. Many of my old postcards depict Blackpool's famous attractions along the promenade including Blackpool Tower, the Illuminations and three Victorian piers. Some of the places featured have since been demolished such as the Open Air Lido, a beautiful 1920s building which was inspired by the architecture of the Colosseum in Rome. Below are some of my favorite postcards and a collection of intriguing messages sent from holidaymakers to their friends and family back home.
