This is a very impressive turnout with a well matched pair of horses and smartly dressed Coachman and Groom. With the guardrail on the roof allowing for parcels and luggage to be transported along with passengers this was often referred to as a Station Brougham. The postcard was purchased from Arthur Davidson, Stationer, Warrington and posted on November 6th, 1904. It was sent to Mr, Jas. Waring, 39 Scotland Road, Blackburn from Annie. The card reads “Sorry you are not here you are missing a treat. I have just been to see the stables with our Bert. I shall want to come back, we are having a ripping time, Yours Annie". Whether Bert was the groom seen here in the photograph we shall unfortunately never know.
