This postcard was kindly sent to me by Brett,which was very kind of him.
Postmarked 1906 and sent from Johannesburg to Isle of Man.

Paul,
Now that is a nice one, I wonder who the recipient was and what connection that person might have had to the Imperial Light Horse.

I am pleased that the postcard has found a good home. I will be visiting the local militaria shop tomorrow to look for badges and buttons. I will also add postcards to the list.

Regards
Brett

Gentlemen,
Though not a postcard type, I picked this up recently for pennies, whilst not in very good condition, it is, I feel, a good image, I wonder who the gentlemen and lady might have been.
