Antique & Vintage Postcards

Hand-colored photographic postcard of Torquay, Devon, looking out from Daddy Hole Plain across Anstey's Cove toward the red sandstone cliffs and headland beyond. In the foreground, a crescent-shaped terrace hotel and gardens descend steeply toward the shingle beach; a promenade and seawall follow the curve of the bay, with several small boats visible on the calm water. The image is characteristic of the Photochrom Celesque Series, with bright applied color over a photographic base.
