This unaddressed, unsigned postcard identifies Lord John Russell's watch, inherited (as Edith Russell writes in a note at the top) by BR.

The maker was Benjamin Lewis Vulliamy, Golden Square, Regent Street, London. The watch is hallmarked 1836-37.

This date-stamped card is located adjacent to Agatha Russell's letter of 20 March 1905 to BR, record 100239, which concerns the gift of the watch. The card's position is an indication that BR was examining her file in his archives at the time of the postcard.
