The Reader's Neighborhhood News and Waterfront reporter Ken Harrison will speak about his collection of historic Cardiff by the Sea post cards. Lifelong Cardiff by the Sea resident and past president of the Cardiff by the Sea Town Council, he and his wife Cheryl and sons Johnny & Trevor live in Poinsettia Heights. Ken began his post card collection a decade ago, searching on e-Bay. The highest bid for a card in this collection was $21 for a 1960 Speedee Mart Shopping Center image. The original collection won 3rd Place in the Hobby Show at the San Diego County Fair in 2006. It has doubled in size since then. Many of the photos in the 2009 book on Cardiff, by Wehtahnah Tucker, came from Ken's collection.
