I am fortunate to have in my possession an envelope of my Father's QSL cards from circa 1938. These are all confirmations of SWL reports by my Father at his QTH of Tobacconist Farm, Minchinhampton, Gloucester, England. It is clear that he was not transmitting at this time, but from the writing on some of the cards, he was intending to get his TX working shortly. His own QSL card (callsign 2DWH) is shown here to the right.

The 33 QSL cards presented here are placed in alphabetical order. Clicking on each image will take you to the full size high-resolution scan, each image has an average size of 84K. Where the reverse of the card is interesting I have scanned it, and you can view it by clicking on "reverse" where you see it. In most cases the reverse just contains the address. Many of these are historically interesting in themselves, with stamps from around the world. If you're a stamp collector. But I'm not, and I don't have time to scan all the reverses as well. Written meticulously on the back of each card is the zone of the station, and the date received.

Enjoy the collection!
