sommewalker Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 HOPEFULLY ! this will be the last ppss etc, I have located 1 more postcard that has something to do with that raid, on the 7-5-1915 I had seen examples of this card that had been sold on various auction sites, over a period of a few years, but like the scarlet pimpernel of old, never found one for sale till now that is ! this one shows the bomb crater and associated damage on one half of the card, and on the other it shows members of the Kent constabulary , holding pieces of the bombs dropped that day,, one thing that is interesting is that, one man possibly the owner ? appears in all the images bar the stockroom one, THE LATEST BULLETIN OR P.PS !!!! after more hard searching and a lot of luck, i have acquired the last one in the set of 3 post cards the ones that shows someone , standing on the edge, of a bomb crater ,at the rear of the shop, number 6 albion hill ramsgate kent, i have included an image of all 3 cards, and the cards as separate ones,, i thought i was lucky finding the stock room one, never mind the bomb crater, one to make up the set. This is a PPS , about the zeppelin raid/ postcards , and in particular the damage to the imperial Bazaar , no 6 Albion hill Ramsgate Kent, I've finally after many moons of searching, found the 2nd postcard, about the raid on Ramsgate on the 7-5-1915 this one shows the damage to the Stockroom, of the imperial Bazaar, and is rarely seen on the market . This is a P.S about The post I did earlier about the raid on Ramsgate Kent, of Monday 17th of may 1915,the Mr France mentioned in the original report ,...of the 15th of may 1915,was a Mr Frederic France born in 1847in Kennington surreyand was a lodger at the imperial bazaar no 6 Albion hill Ramsgatehe was listed as a brokers manA broker is an individual or party (brokerage firm) that arranges transactions between a buyer and a seller for a commission when the deal is executed. A broker who also acts as a seller or as a buyer becomes a principal party to the deal. Distinguish agent—one who acts on behalf of a principal,apparently he died in Thanet in 1927the 2 items either side of the postcard , which is postmarked23rd of July 1915and sent to Argentina , were both sold from that shop after another raid ,on the 17th of June 1917,its quite rare to be able to tie things / objects together so well. PPS i have also found out that the full name of the bazaar is,Lilly's Imperial Bazaar & Servants Free Registry Office No 6Albion hillRamsgateKentit looks like the owner may have been ,Lilly. Agnesapartments 22 Albion HillRamsgate Kentso I have found out about a lodger ,and possibly the owner of the shop that the china came from 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
