  • PC_Dickens_0054-LewinHand coloured postcard published by E W Savory Ltd Bristol series no 646 - Design by F G Lewin Frederick George Lewin (1861-1933) was born in Bristol, the son of a sea captain. A humorous illustrator, journalist and painter, Lewin worked for the Bristol Magpie and Bristol Evening Post and contributed to Punch magazine (1902-08). One of his main publishers was E.W. Savory Ltd. of Bristol, who produced advertising calendars for the Yorkshire textile company Sam Weller, appropriately using characters from Pickwick Papers. He was a member of the Royal West of England Academy and the Bristol Savage Club, and he wrote and illustrated Rhymes of Ye Olde Sign Boards (1911) and others. In 1912 he provided the illustrations for Characters from Dickens. His light-hearted drawings of Dickensian characters also featured on cigarette cards and postcards.

  • PC_Dickens_0052Unused Tuck Oilette postcard No 4007 - After an original painting by C E Flower Charles Edwin Flower (1871-1951) was one of Tuck’s most prolific artists and contributed around 300 paintings over a long career. He travelled widely, with the scenes he captured covering the USA, Canada, Germany and Argentina as well as the breadth of the UK. The ubiquity of Tuck’s postcards must have made Flower’s work some of the most recognised of the early 20th century. Despite this, relatively little is known of him beyond that, prior to working for Tuck, he was employed as an artist by the pioneering archaeologist Augustus Pitt Rivers to illustrate a catalogue of the vast number of finds from excavations on Pitt Rivers’ Wiltshire estate.
