The Postcard

 

A postally unused Bamforth 'Witty Series' postcard.

 

Bamforth & Co. (1870-1990)

 

James Bamforth began his career as a manufacturer of lantern slides. In 1890 he started production of illustrated song lyric slides that audiences could sing along to at shows. This quickly became his most popular selling item. In the years following, the Company became the largest producer of life model slides.

 

From this vast photo inventory Bamforth began to publish a variety of postcard types including comics, greetings, propaganda, real photos and views, but especially song sets, many of which were reproduced from lantern slide images.

 

Today they are best remembered for their series of saucy seaside postcards, which may have numbered close to a 100,000 different titles. While this series was begun in 1902, they did not become very popular until the 1930’s.

 

In 1906 Bamforth opened a New York Office at 35 West 21st. Street. By 1910 they had become a Limited company. The Company was sold to E. T. W. Dennis, but in 2000 the rights to their images were purchased by Ian Walker.

The mist closes in on the area called Calling Low, the light levels are diminishing and time is starting to race a pace. Time to leave the muncher to its crop and quicken my pace to get to my destination at Taddington.

South Asia Calling

These drummers started off a show highlighting the dance, music, and traditional garments of their minority group. After a it of back-and-forth with drums and horns, the girls came out to dance.

Motherwort, showing its fruit consisting of four 1-seeded nutlets, typical of the Lamiaceae (Dead-Nettle family). Not having seen it before, I was grateful to the staff at Holme Dunes for calling on its original finder to show me where it was. Long past flowering, but you can't have everything . . .

There have been two Sandhill Cranes hanging out in the neighborhood i've been staying in which are incredibly tame.

 

They have been hard to photograph though as lining up a clean background is almost impossible with all the homes around.

 

Here's another example of the incredible tameness of birds in Florida. These two birds walked right up to my tripod to within 3 or 4 feet and kept on walking out the paved road!

Calling home is a weekly habit for us. Some ties are too strong for time to erode. On the opposite, it binds us even more.
