Postcards from another era

Guardian reader Ian Bagshaw has stirred up a hornet's nest with his collection of postcards.

We featured the first raft last week and they've proved sufficiently popular for us to feature even more.

Mr Bagshaw is passionate about Chorley and collects anything connected with the town, including postcards, medals, cups, plates and badges.

The 64-year-old, from Euxton, reckons he has about 1,000 postcards and recently bought some more from York – but doesn't know what they depict.

"The photos are dated between 1920 and the 1940s and I'm hoping they'll jog someone's memory," he said.

This week's postcards include a church service and possibly a wedding.
