PICTURE POST CARDS.—Messrs. Raphael Tuck send us a batch of

their latest novelties,—the " Heraldic " series of post-cards. On the back of each card the arms of one of the leading cities or towns of Great Britain are beautifully printed in gold and colours, with an appropriate picture or emblem underneath,—thus London has a street scene, Cardiff a " liner," Sheffield a set of tools. The space available for correspondence is naturally restricted, occupying from three-fifths to two-thirds of the whole, but the decorative attractions of these cards will appeal strongly to the makers of post-card albums.
