EDITORS COMMENTS
This real photo postcard, dated 1914, showcases the iconic Water Tower in Croydon, Surrey. The image, published by an unknown publisher, captures the tower in all its glory, standing proud against the backdrop of the rolling hills and lush greenery that surrounds it. The water tower, an essential part of Croydon's infrastructure during the early 20th century, supplied water to the growing town. The real photo process, a popular method for producing postcards during this era, lends an authentic and lifelike quality to the image. The intricate details of the water tower's brickwork and the subtle textures of the surrounding landscape are beautifully rendered, making this postcard a treasured keepsake from the past. The postcard's reverse bears the inscription "Price 1d," reflecting the affordable cost of communication and connection during this time. The image on the front is accompanied by the simple caption "Water Tower, Croydon, Surrey," providing a succinct yet descriptive title for this charming scene. This postcard offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the simple pleasure of sending a message across great distances was a source of joy and excitement. The Water Tower in Croydon, Surrey, stands as a testament to the ingenuity and progress of the past, and this postcard serves as a tangible reminder of the rich history that surrounds us.
