Another example of a picture produced using lithography

The shot overseeing the city and looking west onto the Rothesay Bay was taking and published by the Brown & Rawcliffe Limited corporation (metropostcard 2019). They used a method of printing called Lithography and were chromolithographers based in Liverpool, England (flickr 2019). They used the The postcard was part of the B & R series. The B & R series postcards were produced from 1908 to 1910 (edinphoto 2019). This postcard captured the landscape of the town of Rothesay in Scotland. The R & B series was for postcards with images printed on them of different places within Scotland. There are multiple names printed all over front of the postcard, they are the names of different clan originating from different parts of Scotland.

Town of Rothesay

The audience of the postcard is not stated, but based off the vast landscape and small architectural references it can be said that tourist would appreciate this postcard the most. Around the time of the manufacturing of this postcard, the town of Rothesay was witnessing its few last years of mass tourist visits. Thus the hypothesis of tourists using this postcard the most would make sense. Many names are written on the post card, they all are different clans but the purpose of including them is not stated. The names would give the type of print and colour used as the border but the significance of including such details purely for a border are also unknown.
