Do you have any old postcards such as this showing historic scenes of Keighley life? If so you could be sitting on a goldmine, says national auctioneer and valuer Warwick and Warwick.

The firm will be in Keighley next week to value people's collections of picture postcards, stamps, coins, cigarette cards and medals.

Colin Such, the firm's spokesman, said many people did not realise the worth of their picture postcard collections.

He said: "They can be quite valuable, especially animated street scenes with trams and early motor cars, and industrial views such as coal mines."

As well as valuing items, Warwick and Warwick offers a selling service.

Valuers will be at the Dalesgate Hotel, 406 Skipton Road, Utley, next Thursday from 4pm.

Home visits for larger collections may be possible. Phone 01926 499031.
