Picture this! Blackpool postcards from back in time
The charming old postcards were brought in by Memory Lane reader Steve Gomersall, whose great grandmother used to run a boarding house in Shepherd Street, Blackpool.
They would be sent by guests, family and friends from all over the country, and Steve’s relatives collected and kept them.
