Early Victoria Falls Postcards

Nick Baalbergen Writes:-

Two early post cards of the Victoria Falls Regatta on the banks of the Zambezi (Spelt with an 'S' in those days!) and a view of the Victoria Falls Bridge from down in the gorge.

Both these are part of old photographic material I purchased. The surrounding material dates from about 1915 to 1920, so best guess is that the cards are from the same era. They are unfortunately stuck to the album pages, so can't see the reverse.
