This card is one of the 570 so far identified by the Imperial Airways listing project of which more later, along with some cards of Imperial in less familiar locations than the many and various Croydon cards. On the other hand Colin Cohen has so few new issues to report that his back page has shrunk to pictures of two that have appeared.
