I discovered Staplehurst Collectables by chance one day, and since then have been unable to browse through the list without being tempted to buy something!
Most of my purchases have been from the Nostalgia series of cards which have the most wonderful, thought provoking images. Although I am not a postcard collecter, I am drwn towards these and buy them for family and fririnds (as well as myself!) who have an interest in a particular subject.
I have been delighted with all my purchases so far, but my favourite has to be
"So This Is Blackpool 1939". This makes me laugh everytime I look at it - the imposing Grandma on the beach (who incidently bears a strong resemblence to Giles' cartoon character Grandma!)- Hope she isn't a relative of anyone reading this.
I will continue to buy from David's shop as he offers an excellent service and is also a helpful and pleasant person too.
