This grouping came from the estate of the late Dr. Milburn Calhoun (former owner of Pelican Publishing Company) - Great lot of British Artist G.F. Castleden's 1920's postcards depicting his pen/ink drawings of iconic French Quarter scenes - we also include an original envelope. Castleden visited New Orleans in 1911. The trip clearly made a lasting impression on the artist, but it was not until 1917 or 1920 that Castleden returned to the city and opened a studio at 622 St. Peter Street and maintained a daily gallery in the courtyard of the Cabildo. He joined the talented community of artists and writers in what became known as the French Quarter Renaissance. He was an active member of the Arts and Crafts Club and a charter member of the male-only New Orleans Art League, organized in 1927. All the cards are unused. Average asking price on ebay is 5.00 to 10.00 per card. Some of the cards are more scarce than others. Perfect for framing. I would be willing to ship these - you pay priority postage.
