Babbacombe by Numbers

In the old days postcards were a team effort.

First they sent out a photographer. Then they got someone with a brush and a few cans of Dulux to add a few splashes of colour - or a full blown work of art such as this one which looks like it started out as a black and white photo and finished as a bad LSD trip...

It's always fun to find a John Hinde postcard and spot the painted red jumper or yacht sails, but this one has been dabbed just everywhere! Even the rocks are glorious shades of red and gold!
