St. Helena UPU Picture Post Cards - this site T. Jackson / Frank / Thorpe and others PPCs Beginning with 1900 the first picture postcards were issued on St. Helena. The first PPCs were published by A.L. Innes (PPC1-13) and T. Jackson. Other PPCs with imprinted "St. Helena" were published by M.A. Frank/Rotterdam, PPC's by an unknown publisher and by W.A. Thorpe. You can recognize UPU PPCs with the imprinted heading "UNION POSTALE UNIVERSELLE / ST. HELENA / POST CARD / THE ADDRESS ONLY ...." Later issued PPCs are headed with only "POST CARD". My project/intension is to list the known UPU PPCs and to show the examples of the front and the picture side. Please be patient - that work isn't done in a month or even in a year. If you can help with additional PPCs, titles or/and scans, I would be very grateful if you contact me or send me scans with at least 150 dpi - thanks! For the numbering I use the original numerical order preceded by Robert Richardson (WASC), which is identical with Skavaril/Lampart (SHATPS) up to PPC1-13. The numbering of S/L is noted behind the R.R. number. All PPCs shown with kind permission of the owners. If you are a member of one of my societies, I'm able to translate German written postcards - please ask for! A.L. Innes PPCs see site UPU PPCs Innes | | | T. Jackson PPCs | | | Jackson PPC15 |
