West Highland Museum Description An account of the resource These postcards are part of a much larger collection sent by John McCallum to his wife Mary from France during the Great War. They married in Ballachulish in April 1916, but six months later John was shipped off to fight on the Western Front. He served as a Sergeant in the 13th Battalion of the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders. Between October 1916 and February 1919 John sent Mary numerous postcards detailing his life in France. Embroidered cards like these were popular with the troops. They were made by local French women as a way of supplementing their income and sold to soldiers as gifts to send home. The postcards were gifted to the West Highland Museum in 2019 by John and Mary’s granddaughter.
