Description: This photograph was taken as one of the sets of 25, by Albert Heath (who died in 1917) of Thanet Street, Clay Cross, for The Clay Cross Company. This one shows one of the 300 ponies owned by the Clay Cross Company. The torn caption on this photograph indicates that it was one prepared for the Company to be sent to the printers for inclusion in their sets, which they had done in around 1910, to promote their products after winning a gold medal at The Franco-British Industrial Exhibition. There is also a set without the captions on the postcards. Thousands of them were distributed in London and when a consumer had collected a full set, they traded them for a prize. (These postcards are now costing between £10 and £15 each at postcard fairs and recently a full set sold for £400)
