So, some of you may remember that on May 14th I posted that I had found a postcard sent by H.G. Wells to his wife and that I'd sent scans to the H.G. Wells Society to see if it could be evaluated. I heard back last night. The expert wishes to remain anonymous, but has given permission for the details of the evaluation to be shared. Below are the scans that I sent of the front and back of the card. The card shows a train at the top of the Brünig Pass in Switzerland... 1/11 #HGWells #Postcards

The back of the postcard sent by H.G. Wells, showing the address of Mrs Wells where the card was sent.

Went to list a postcard for sale this morning, then noticed that it was sent by HG Wells to his wife. Obviously I pulled it until I can authenticate it, but I'm fairly sure. 🤞 #HGWells #Postcards
