Welcome to our new website!
We are a friendly and enthusiastic group of postcard collectors who meet monthly throughout the year (except August) in Our Lady & St.Edward Church Hall. We also hold four successful Postcard & Ephemera Fairs a year. These are held in Barton Village Hall.
Founded in 1984 with a humble 27 people, the club began to grow in 1987 when we published our first book featuring 100 of the best postcard views of Preston. Whether you are new to the hobby, an established collector, or just simply want to find out what postcard collecting is all about just pop along to one of our monthly meetings. Guests and visitors will always be made welcome.

All meetings include a social break with tea, coffee and biscuits as well as time to chat with fellow members. Friends of members and members of other postcard clubs are very welcome.

Our monthyl newsletter is distributed via email and includes a report on recent talks, general club news, details of upcoming fairs, out visits and when possible, articles by fellow members.
