Abstract
(Color) This postcard is a reprinting of Chappell's poem, "The Day," reprinted from London's "Daily Express." The card indicates that this particular poem elevated Chappell to the "rank of a national poet." Because of his work as a porter at a Bath station, his nickname is the "Bath Railway Poet." The British, green, halfpenny stamp is cleary postmarked Cosham, 11:30 A.M. on December 24, 1914. The card is sent to "Miss Smith," for Christmas, from "S."
