  1. Alan, I wouldn't describe these as "cards". They are printed on a fairly flimsy, ie about 80gsm, cartridge paper that has been colour-washed in grey and then printed. They are brilliant drawings, I have the full set of 7.

    1. Hi Peter,

      Thanks for your comments. I know what you mean, but I have lots of things in my 'card' collection that fall outside what most people call cards. They are superb items, I bought a bundle of the magazines a long time ago and found most of these amongst the issues I had bought. A lovely surprise as I'd bought the magazines for something unconnected to the prints.
