Brace yourselves for a reproduction postcard from 1915 or so, a cornucopia of an increasing number of "Wait, what?" the longer you look at it. It has chickens and the barest fucking tangential connection to the holiday of Easter and that's wonderful. Gaze upon it:
An early twentieth century postcard which is packed full of Halifax icons. There's Wainhouse Tower in the background, Crossley's (then Orphanage, now School) to the left, the Moor (as green then as it is now) and temperance campaigner Joseph Thorp's monumental drinking fountain. #halifaxuk#calderdale#yorkshire#vintagepostcards#postcards
This will be a scene that is instantly recognisable to most current residents of Halifax - the shops on the top end of the Borough Market may have changed but the buildings are substantially the same as in this 1904 postcards. There’s not too many towns you can say that about. #halifax#yorkshire#VintagePostcards
