Click ^ for larger image.
The picture published in this postcard was photographed by Walter Harry Kent, and titled "WESTTOWN LANE BRISLINGTON." It was printed photographically directly onto card produced specially for use as a postcard. The earliest known variant of this picture was printed as a postcard before 3 June 1918 (we know this because the stamp box printed on the back advises the sender that a halfpenny stamp is required, and this postage rate was replaced by a one penny stamp on that date).
