More information

Buckinghamshire Postcards: Aylesbury and Stowe

Buckinghamshire postcards for sale are centred on Aylesbury, the county town that gave its name to the Aylesbury duck, a breed raised for its meat and prized white feathers since the 18th century; before the railway arrived in 1839, breeders walked flocks of ducks the 40 miles to London to sell. Postcards of the town sit alongside views of Stowe, where the Temple family laid out one of England's great landscape gardens from 1718 onwards, filling 300 acres with lakes, temples and sculpture.

Hughenden Manor postcards picture the home of Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli, who bought the house in 1848 and remodelled it into the Victorian retreat that stands today. Bletchley Park postcards reflect a very different chapter: during the Second World War, codebreakers there including Alan Turing worked to crack the German Enigma cipher, in an effort credited with shortening the war by up to four years.

Postcards of other Buckinghamshire towns and villages appear on this page as well, and new stock is added whenever we find it.

FAQs

Why is Aylesbury linked with ducks?
Aylesbury became known for breeding white ducks from the 18th century, originally valued for their feathers as well as their meat, and duck rearing grew into a major local industry during the 19th century.

What happened at Bletchley Park?
During the Second World War, codebreakers at Bletchley Park, including Alan Turing, worked to crack German military ciphers such as Enigma, work credited with significantly shortening the war.

How can I date a Buckinghamshire postcard?
Start with the postmark if the card has been posted. If it's unused, the publisher name, printing style and details like the stamp box design can help narrow down the era.

What condition are the postcards in?
We photograph each postcard closely so you can see its actual condition before you buy. Due to their age, some general wear is normal, such as light creasing or corner wear, and condition varies from postcard to postcard.

Are the postcards unused or posted?
You'll see a mix throughout this collection. Each listing shows whether that particular postcard has been posted or not.

How are the postcards packaged for posting?
Each postcard is placed within a protective sleeve and posted in a hardback envelope, to keep it protected in transit.

Can postage be combined across more than one postcard?
Yes, we combine postage across all items on our store. We post worldwide, and UK orders of £50 and over qualify for free shipping.

Is the photo of the exact postcard I'll receive?
Yes, every photo shows the exact postcard you'll receive, not a generic or stock image.

Who lived at Hughenden Manor?
Hughenden Manor was the home of Victorian Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli from 1848 until his death in 1881, and he remodelled the house into the Victorian retreat visitors see today.
