<p>[QUOTE="Cattitude, post: 4533594, member: 76242"]I have a 20+ old black&white photographs similar to attached one. All of them are photos of places around the UK. I can see each photo has J.V. in the text description at the bottom which I figured out it means 'James Valentine' which was leading manufacturer of picture postcards between 1815–1879. Pictures that I have are not postcards, all of them has plain back and some has something hand-written. Most of them are 8x6 inches or larger and paper they are printed on looks really old. What I would like to know is what does the number before J.V. mean? Attached picture is not mine, I just used it as example for the description text on the picture. What do you suggest how do I get more information about the value of those pictures?</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]400935[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]400936[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
