Scouring his vast collection of British postcards from decades past, Tom Jackson presents samples that have the funniest or most bizarre messages on the back, often penned by weary or crestfallen travelers. A montage of the Yorkshire Dales is captioned, "Huge hordes of wild sheep, cows and rabbits ready to attack at any time," while a lovely scene from Weymouth bears only the word, "Murder." Sometimes the personalized note offers a tantalizing glimpse of someone's life, as with a seashore photo inscribed, "Have ended up in Cornwall instead of Ibiza—it's a long story."
