Hertfordshire Genealogy: Catalogue of F S Cards

A very distinctive set of cards, signed with the pseudonym "Dauber" apparently first published in the autumn of 1909 by Watkins & Krake. The known series numbers could suggest the compete set contains 12 cards. There is no evidence of any later reprints.

The "F S" project is part of the "Genealogy in Hertfordshire" web site which was set up in 2001 to encourage research in family and local history. If you can fill in any of the gaps (missing postcard images, series numbers, or earliest postal dates) this will help other researchers who visit this site.
