c.1907 Picture postcard with 1904 KEVII 1/2d tied by "GK & ARDRISHAIG PACKET / B / CHEVALIER" c.d.s (Rob. GA P7), used on the inward afternoon sailing. The "Chevalier" operated in the winter months only when there were virtually no tourists, and the datestamp is therefore very scarce, recorded by Tabeart used 1902-03 and 1907 only. Photo on Page 24.
