Illustrated postcard "DON'T GO DOWN THE MINE, DAD (1)"
Illustrated coloured postcard showing a boy in bed. He is looking up at his father who is wearing brown jacket, trousers and cap. There is a chair and a dressing table next to the bed. Above the boy’s head is a dream image showing people running to pit head buildings which are on fire. Beneath the image is the first verse of a poem entitled “DONT GO DOWN THE MINE, DAD (1)” which describes how a child warns his father of a dream he has had about an accident at the pit and asks him not to go to work. The reverse is blank.
