1909 series of envelopes skilfully hand-illustrated in India ink - a few with highlights in red - all but two also adorned on the reverse, from 'DCB' at 'BYRON BAY' to "Miss E Bright/Sunnybank [one says "Sunnyside"]/Lavender Bay' with the address incorporated into the designs, one with a glowing testimonial for Sunnybank on the reverse, some soiling/aging which thankfully is largely confined to the backs. A very appealing group. (9)
