Abstract
The postcard shows the Victoria Institute which built to commemorate the Golden Jubilee of Queen’s Victoria’s reign. Fire gutted the building in 1920s and it was rebuilt in 1923, but renamed the National Museum and Art Gallery in 1965. The original building was designed by Daniel Mienerts Hahn, a German who worked in the Dept of Public Works. Printed on the back of the postcard are the words :"1016 Par excellence"
