Photograph showing the exterior of the chalets from the road with other buildings nearby and mountains in the distance.
Photograph by R Schudel, Photo-Suisse, Grindelwald. Used.
Addressed to Miss [redacted], London from A. [?Auntie] Maud. Inscribed on reverse: 'Dear Wendy, I thought you might like a picture of the Hotel we are staying at up amongst the Alps. None of these pictures really give you the idea of Switzerland. In fact I think Mother has better ones but when you grow up you will have to come and see it for yourself. Hope you had a nice holiday'. Postmarked Grindelwald.
