Postcards
The only major book on Australian postcards is "Picture Postcards in Australia 1898-1920" by David Cook, publ. by Pioneer Design Studio, Victoria, 1986 (now out of print). This is an invaluable and thoroughly researched work which is essential to anyone collecting postcards published in Australia.
