This is an endearing collection of Victorian postcards. Likely lovingly collected by someone on their travels and then framed to keep memories alive. The framing is unusually naive for the period. Hand glued onto a paper or card backing, and with a hand drawn mount edging/frame and label "Victorian Postcards of Devon" in a linear fashion (almost looks early nouveau). I would put the framing around early 1900s. The frame is a very basic wooden light wood frame, glazing intact and ready to hang. it has the original wooden backing of the frame. Places on the postcards include Dunster in Somerset and Porlock in Devon. They all display classic scenes of those places and bring Victorian era back to life. There is spotting on the picture noticeably the mounted backing but this is a very old collection and display, so not surprising. The frame also is showing life - wear and tear, and can easily be left as is - but could also similarly be stained or oiled if you desired. Please see photos and video for a sense of the collection and display.
