These postcards were issued as advertising for Goss [[Crested china]]. The cards were initially issued in a seris of 6 of the most popular designs. The cards did not show any coat of arms. Local agents or stationers could order the cards with a specific coat of arms, which was then overprinted on the cards. As there were hundreds of arms to choose from, there is an enormous variation of the cards possible. Later two more cards were issued. | These postcards were issued as advertising for Goss [[Crested china]]. The cards were initially issued in a seris of 6 of the most popular designs.
