Presented below are additional items from a collection of  The Postal History of the Kingdom of Carrick. The collection whose earliest piece is dated 1697 spans all the postal markings and offices of Carrick through to the present day. An exhibit of this collection will be on show at Glasgow in November of 2000 by its owner Tom Fowler, former resident of Maybole. For those with an interest in viewing this collection in Glasgow return here later for details of the show. The images and text below generously contributed by Tom Fowler .
