Raphael Tuck & Sons 'Oilette' postcard depicting men and women playing lawn bowls in period attire. Text on the back of the card states: "Bowls is an English pastime of great antiquity, and was played in the 17th and 18th centuries much in the same manner as to-day. Admiral Drake was playing bowls at Plymouth when the news reached him that the Spanish Armada was in sight."
