In the Pink, again

G. Herring

These date from 1949 to possibly the mid 1950s, so co-incided with the promoted ‘All Purpose Button’ cards with added thread. Do you think that mixing 2 shades of pink on the same card was a mistake?

In 1949 when these cards were introduced there was no pricing printed on them. From October 1951-March 1952, then also from April 1954- 1957 the price was 1’3.

Originals dated from 1950-1959. The card on the right was one of several types that replaced the “All Purpose” style from 1960.
