Burnham and the Dengie 100

Gallery of old prints - page 3

Historic prints of Maldon, Latchingdon, Asheldham, Bradwell on Sea and farming. All these antique pictures are from photographic postcards produced around the turn of the 19th/20th century. They are all from the collection of Michael Head, a well known postcard collector from Burnham-on-Crouch. Due to their great age, many of the old prints were badly faded or damaged but these images have all been carefully restored by Matt & Gloss photography, who are well known in the area for their antique photo restoration service.
