Postcards to The Front (C)
Postcard sent to Joe Derbyshire whilst on active service in France during WW1.
Mr. Derbyshire was a resident of Rigby Street, Preston.
Following comment from flickr member Tony Beale: These three postcards were sent by my grandmother Jane Derbyshire to her husband Joe Derbyshire when he was in France in the Great War. I have many more – including cards that he sent to her, but his have little or no writing on them since this was often not allowed in case the cards should fall into enemy hands.
