The Beresford Hotel Greetings Card (A6 Sized)

Description

The Beresford Hotel Greetings Card (A6 Size)

The former Beresford Hotel is one of Glasgow’s finest Art Deco buildings. Constructed in 1937 for visitors attending the 1938 Empire Exhibition in Bellahouston Park, it was designed by William Beresford Inglis, who later went on to manage it. Having served time as a university halls of residence, it is now private apartments. The Beresford has an unexpected place in American 20th Century politics as it was here in 1939 that a 22 year old John F. Kennedy (the future US president), gave his first official public speech.

The card is A6 in size (14.8cm by 10.5cm) and is blank inside so you can add your own message, and it comes with its own white envelope.

This card is also available as a pack pf six Glasgow Icon greetings cards.

This photograph is also available as as an A4 mounted print, or as part of a Glasgow’s Art Deco Buildings collage.
