With so many black and white pictures of Kimberley, I thought I should start this thread with a colour postcard of the Town Hall:

David,
A very nice colour postcard, I will have a look through my collection to see if I can contribute.

Paul,

I thought you might like that one.

It is being auctioned in the next day and had attracted no bids before I lodged my £1 for it.

Kind regards
David

For those of you who enjoy the artillery, here are examples of the Brit and Boer shells used in the Siege of Kimberly.
