Standing sentinel over the Yorkshire coast, Whitby Abbey is rendered here in vivid photocolour — its dramatic Gothic ruins rising from windswept grasslands above a reflective pool. This tranquil yet powerful composition evokes the romance and legend long associated with this monastic site, including its links to Bram Stoker’s Dracula.

Printed and published by E. T. W. Dennis & Sons Ltd., Scarborough, one of Britain’s most prolific postcard producers, the card bears the serial code W.T.0772 and belongs to their Photocolour series — known for its rich tonal printing and nostalgic presentation. Though unused, the clean reverse and typography offer mid-century authenticity and visual appeal.

Standard 3½ x 5½ inch size and in decent vintage condition, this postcard will resonate with collectors of Gothic ruins, North Yorkshire history, and classic postcard printing styles. An evocative keepsake of a site steeped in ecclesiastical and literary lore.
