Description
Very good condition Edwardian real photograph novelty midget postcard (measuring approximately 8.75 cm x 7 cm) published as part of the Rotary Photographic Series (No. 6865a). The front features a beautiful portrait of famous English stage actress and Gaiety Girl Miss Marie Studholme, photographed by the renowned female studio photographer Lizzie Caswall Smith. Her elegant lace gown and matching floral hair ornament are delicately tinted with hand-colored light blue highlights.
The divided back is specially printed for the miniature "Midget Post Card" format. It features a bold, clear circular British postmark from January 11, 1907, cleanly tying a green half-penny King Edward VII postage stamp. It is addressed to Miss Lily at 11 Walmer Crescent, Ibrox.
The handwritten message along the left margin reads:
"Another for your collection with love from G. Hutchison"
A beautifully preserved, rare miniature size specimen with sharp details, an intact period stamp, and light natural age toning on the reverse side.
For serious collectors looking at future value, authenticity is everything. Beware of modern reproductions - only genuine original postcards like ours offer true investment potential and lasting value.
