Postcards were a common form of communication by travelers and tourists who went on long and difficult journeys in the 1900s. With the help of these rare picture postcards and photographs, Ajay will take us around our beloved city and share with us his immense knowledge of its rich heritage and history. Get a glimpse of the Bombay of the past, & view images of the iconic Gateway of India, Taj Mahal Hotel and the long-gone Colaba Railway station, along with interesting postcards from the snail mail days!
Come take this opportunity to see the transformation of Bombay to Mumbai!
