The obvious link between postcards and Aboriginal history is the photographic and descrip tive content of the cards themselves. During the latter part of the nineteenth century and well into this century photocards1 and postcards2 were printed, largely for overseas con sumption, which showed scenes of Aboriginal life or portraits of Aboriginal identities. Many of these cards are of value as often being the only records of what they portray.3
