G2NS 1970 England
Writen on the card:
"Although I put a Pirate Spark signal on the air from
Sydenham, London, in 1913 when a 16-year-old probationer with the
old Eastern Telegraph Co. ( now Cable and Wireless), I am not an
old timer because I only got my amateur ticket 37 years ago (=
1933). The call was held by M. Burchill of Bristol in 1924".
There is one of his 1934 cards on the LNDX site.
He seems to have had an interesting life working for: Eastern
Telegraph Co., 5th King's Liverpools, 18th Kings Royal Rifle
Corps., Brazilian Meat Co., St. John del Rey Mining Co., Royal
Observer Corps., Hacker Signs, Spooner Signs.
