- Description:
- Postcard (color, oilette, divided back, 3 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches) titled The Macintyre - Text on reverse: The Clan Macintyre – This clan is believed to be one of the numerous septs of the Macdonalds, once the most powerful of the Scottish clans, The Macintyres had their territory in Glen O, near Bunawe, in the district of Lorn, Argyllshire. They were the hereditary foresters of the Stewarts, Lords of Lorn. Most of the clan emigrated to America early last century. Their war cry is “Cruachan” (a mountain near Loch Awe), and their badge “Common Heath.” Clan Series VI 9559. Printed in England. *Note: This card is one of the Scottish Clan Postcards produced by the famous Raphael Tuck Company of London. Each card shows the clan tartan, clan emblem, plant, and either the traditional clan seat or a picturesque landscape from the clan's traditional “stomping ground.” The series was first issued in 1906. It consisted of seven sets of six cards each. Each card was labeled “Oilette” which refers to a particular type of postcard production. In 1883, Queen Victoria granted the firm the Royal Warrant of Appointment. Tuck cards thereafter bore the message, "Art Publishers to Her Majesty the Queen". Future sovereigns continued the warrant of appointment.
