- Description:
- Postcard (color, oilette, divided back, 3 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches) titled The Ogilvie - Text on reverse: The Ogilvie – The founder of this family was a son of the Earl of Angus in the days of William the Lion, and he assumed the name of his lands, granted from the Crown. They always occupied a high place in Scottish affairs, the Earl of Airlie being the head of the main branch. The fifth earl was out in the ’45 with 600 men, and marched to Derby with Prince Charles, afterwards taking part at the Battle of Culloden. The Earl of Seafield, a promoter of the union with England in 1707, was a member of this family, but the title is now extinct. Badge, “Hawthorne.” Clan Series V 9480. 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.
