GREETINGS FROM ...
The next pages show ca. 250 old
picturepostcards and
photo's
which hopefully will give you an idea of what the towns looked like in
the first 30 years of the 20th century. On the one side the collection
is composed of postcards and pictures from the private files of our
companion
Andries Dijkstra, on the other side they comefrom the database of the
Fries
Fotoarchief of Tresoar. With regard to the latter we are much
obliged
to Tresoar for the willing permission they granted us to publish a
selection
of their collection on our website. Also the municipality of
Ferwerderadeel
should be mentioned for putting the postcards and photo's available to
Tresoar in the first place.
If you will take some time
and trouble to study and compare the
images
in conjunction with the map of the particular town, you may find out
that
you'll know your way around the town fairly well at the end.
