About Series : Series J

This is a series of b&w cards, probably printed by J. Walch & Sons themselves at their printery in Hobart. 

 

Series Contents: The full  list of cards in the series is not know.

 

Date Published: 1907.  The earliest postmark date I have seen is 15 April, 1907.   

 

Printing: The cards were printed by letterpress halftone. J. Walch & Sons had had this type of printing press in their own print shop in Hobart since 1900, so it is most likely that the cards  were printed there.
