I don't know a lot about these and I don't have many types either but the ones below I found very attractive. I have more but just a selection shown for now. Other types include religious scenes and multicoloured stickers. I do know someone from another place who is collecting these, including the albums. I remember the idea from when I was young but my albums are long discarded !! The following are from Scotland......beautifully produced.

Although the stamps on this card are not in great condition, the card is of some historical interest. Reggie Bayley attended the Garrison Sunday School, Roberts Heights, Pretoria, South Africa. The Garrison was founded in 1905 by the British Army. The picture side of the card shows the Writing Room of the Union Jack Club which is an Armed Forces Club in London which opened in 1907 (the club still exists but was rebuilt after being damaged during World War II). The card dates to 1908. It is unclear if this use of the card predates the Union of South Africa in 1910 but it might.
