The postcards in this album show airport scenes that are identified by text on the card or by buildings known to be at a particular airport. There are a large number of early cards from the Croydon Aerodrome which was the main airport for London in the early days of air travel. The rest of the cards are airports from around Europe. I'm listing all of the cards alphabetically by country and airport city. This is a long work in progress.
