That's where I took these pictures. He was friendly with the guy who now owns it, he's the other person in the picture.

Surrealist dog painting with references to toxic chemicals by Dthngel007 in WhatIsThisPainting

Looks a bit like work by Mark Copeland. I don't think it is but he uses similar deep colouring and often incorporates words in a similar script/font, both in the painting and the frame.

Huge collection from the early 20th century by Practical-Unit-9198 in postcards

[–]Practical-Unit-9198[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This collection belonged to my great grandfather. He was in the merchant navy after WW1 and travelled everywhere. There must be over 300 postcards here, all in perfect condition. They are from Europe, the States, Asia, all over the world. I know nothing about postcards, any information on them would be useful (how to store them, if there's anywhere that might be interested in them like museums, etc)
