Galway: History on a Postcard provides an intimate history of Galway county through the engaging and unique postcards of the area produced primarily in the period between 1890 and 1930. The postcards range in type from those produced for tourist and promotional purposes to those produced for less sentimental purposes that capture the true-to-life scenes in Galway’s history. Preference is given to the work of the local photographers of the period, which presents a more representative view of social history than those produced outside the county.
