Swalwell
Postcards
The majority
of these cards were contributed by
Michael Gallagher, and are from his personal
collection which were originally featured on his now closed Swalwell Village
website. Some of these images are also re-coloured photographs by person(s) unknown.
Most of these cards were
printed around the turn of the last century, by a local printer, A. A.
Fletcher , and were some of the first hand-painted coloured cards of their
kind.
