Isle Of Wight Postcard: Longfellow's Fountain, Old Village, Shanklin XT2069.
This postcard features the drinking fountain located outside the Crab Inn in Shanklin’s Old Village, which was designed to commemorate the American poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's 1868 visit to the area. The plaque above the trough displays an original verse Longfellow donated to the town, specifically written to welcome "weary travellers" to drink from the wayside well. The site remains a popular literary landmark on the Isle of Wight, highlighting the poet's historical connection to this scenic coastal village.
This is an unused standard size real photo postcard published by Pikes and manufactured in Great Britain. This postcard measures 140 mm x 90 mm. The postcard has a crease to the top left hand corner.
Please also use the image magnifier to make your own assessment on the condition. Please ignore any lines caused by the scanner.
When possible all of our postcards will be posted to you inside a collectable plastic postcard sleeve and a board backed envelope which will be marked 'Please do not bend'.
Any 'Mo's Postcards' watermark does not appear on the actual postcard'.
