Hello John

Thanks for your input. I'll scan the back of the card later - don't think it will really help though. It simply states 'POST CARD' above 'Carte Postale - Postkarte'. The back is divided in two - above one half it says 'Communication - Mittell(?)ungen - Correspondance' and above the other it says 'Address - Addresse'. Where the stamp goes it says 'Stamp Here' and there is also a stylised 'K' superimposed on 'LTD'. Nothing to say where or when it was taken.

I agree that the shoulder title is not 'RMLI'. I've never seen a picture of an RMLI scout either. I had considered the possibility of it being a prop uniform but it fits too well and looks too smart. Most prop uniforms I've seen being worn on postcards just don't fit or look totally wrong. I suppose it is understandable that anyone posing for a picture for their loved ones would like to look smart.

Ultimately, as you say it is a mystery.

Regards

Pete
