CH Postcards

Whilst at a Bed and Breakfast I stumbled upon a copy of GQ I think it was with an article regarding Ebay.
The young man in question had brought a set of postcards from a charity shop for Â£0.50 and put them seperately on Ebay. One of CH sold for Â£50 - anyone care to admit paying for this?
Will post article and page number when I get home.

maybe there was a rare and valuable stamp on the back?

I did a search on ebay today and it listed about a dozen CH items, from rail tickets to plans of one of the buildings.

Why would someone pay Â£50 for a postcard?

Because they have more money than sense?

One for 'Mysteries of the Universe" I think.

Unless it was written by someone famous I suppose...

Well, if they could sell it for, say, Â£70 ......?

But why would someone buy it for Â£70?

Now that WASN'T the question, was it?

I've just inherited a set of 6 (I think) postcards of CH from my grandmother. They were made in 1989, and depict CH 'then and now' so have old, sepia pics and modern 1989 pics. As I started in 1990 there are people on them I vaguely recognise.

Any bids of Â£50 upwards to be PMd to me.

Cheers.

Searching for "1989" brings it up, but not "Postcard" or "postcard"

Weird!

I've got Series 1 - think there's 12 or so.

Quite good images actually.
