Motor Racing at St. Ouen's Bay, Jersey, Channel Islands by Elmar Ludwig, 1960-1975 
Popularised in a time before newspapers printed any images, postcards were a visual way of communicating for Victorians. Coloured ones emerged in the 1960s in order to capture the optimism of this decade, as the UK finally emerged from post-war austerity.
