Lot 638: A Collection of Rothbury Cards Nostalgic British Motoring Greeting Cards and Postcards After Kevin Walsh and Others
This collection comprises two groups of contemporary ephemera featuring nostalgic mid-century British transportation themes published by Rothbury Cards. The first group includes a variety of postcards and cards depicting vintage motorcycle advertisements and racing posters. Notable brands depicted include Triumph, Norton, Lambretta, and Vespa, alongside a reproduction of a promotional poster for the Brooklands British 1000 Miles Race. The second group consists of six large-format blank greeting cards featuring artwork in the style of Kevin Walsh. These scenes illustrate iconic British vehicles in period settings, including an Aston Martin DB5 and Jaguar E-Type within a workshop, a Jaguar E-Type and green coach at The Lodge Cafe, and a yellow Mini alongside a motorcycle sidecar at an AA telephone box. Many items bear the distinctive RC Rothbury Cards diagonal corner banner. The items are printed on cardstock and are variously presented as loose cards or within protective sleeves.
