Irvine Cross circa 1900 - by Crawford Fulton
This tinted postcard is in remarkable condition for its age, three of these four corners are intact. Sadly the fourth is now a monstrous piece of crass modern architecture, which, at a cost to the taxpayer of £9m, has recently reclad; those involved failed to appreciate that the form of the building was alien to the conservation area in which it is located; a case of making a pig's rear out of a pig's ear!

Andrew Allan Poster 2 - by Crawford Fulton
This is an example of a lithographic process which reproduces the effect of crayon. Allan used this technique many times in the work which he produced for Millar & Lang, Art Publishers, Glasgow.
