There are two basic types of postcards found, the real photo postcard, and the mass-printed postcard (many being printed in Germany). Both examples are represented in this selection displayed.<\/p>\n<p>Remuera is the home of photographer William Thompson Wilson, who photographed and photo-printed as postcards many images locally, and mostly around the Auckland area. Several of his cards are displayed here and, on the back using his brand name \u201cHuia\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Remuera\u2019s Mount Hobson was, and still is, a photographer\u2019s delight, and many of these postcards displayed were photographed off this iconic historic volcanic cone. We are now able to view wonderful streetscapes and harbour panoramas from over a century ago.<\/p>\n<p>[ngg_images source=&#8221;galleries&#8221; container_ids=&#8221;14&#8243; display_type=&#8221;photocrati-nextgen_basic_thumbnails&#8221; override_thumbnail_settings=&#8221;0&#8243; thumbnail_width=&#8221;240&#8243; thumbnail_height=&#8221;160&#8243; thumbnail_crop=&#8221;1&#8243; images_per_page=&#8221;50&#8243; number_of_columns=&#8221;0&#8243; ajax_pagination=&#8221;0&#8243; show_all_in_lightbox=&#8221;0&#8243; use_imagebrowser_effect=&#8221;0&#8243; show_slideshow_link=&#8221;0&#8243; slideshow_link_text=&#8221;Click here to enter a slideshow of gallery photos&#8221; order_by=&#8221;sortorder&#8221; order_direction=&#8221;ASC&#8221; returns=&#8221;included&#8221; maximum_entity_count=&#8221;500&#8243;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The heyday of the pictorial postcard was the early 20th century, with postage being one penny, until December 1907, then this was [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-992","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-remuera-photos"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.terrysutcliffe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/992","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.terrysutcliffe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.terrysutcliffe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.terrysutcliffe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.terrysutcliffe.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=992"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.terrysutcliffe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/992\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1064,"href":"https:\/\/www.terrysutcliffe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/992\/revisions\/1064"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.terrysutcliffe.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=992"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.terrysutcliffe.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=992"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.terrysutcliffe.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=992"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
