Looking at the people in my grandfather's life in the early 1900's through his Edwardian post card collection.

Contrary to regulation 132
This card is intriguing as it has a halfpenny stamp post marked September 22nd, 1904 and a 1d penalty charge. Page 53 of the Post Office Guide, July 1920 explains the regulations for Post Cards at that time.
September 22nd, 1904 was a Thursday. The Olympic boxing event was held on the 21st and 22nd September 1904 in St. Louis, USA.
