Above is a view of Holyrood Palace and Abbey, with Arthur's Seat in the background. Arthur's Seat is the extinct volcano, 823 ft high in the centre of Queen's Park. This postcard has been sent through the post. It was postmarked in Burntisland, Fife on 4 January 1910. It was published by Charles L Reis, who published postcards from 1910 [TR]. He was the brother of A Louis Reis. The figure in the corner of this card (not named on the front or back of the card!) is Mary Queen of Scots.
