About This Design

HMS Pomone Postcard

HMS Pomone Postcard

HMS Pomone was a Royal Navy frigate with a noteable history that spanned the late 18th and early 19th centuries. She was originally launched in 1805 during the Napoleonic Wars, a period of intense naval conflict between Britain and France. As a 38-gun fifth-rate frigate, HMS Pomone was involved in several significant naval engagements, demonstrating her prowess on the high seas. One of her most remarkable moments came in 1810 when she captured the French privateer Vénus in the Caribbean. This victory highlighted the importance of frigates in patrolling and protecting British interests in the Atlantic and Caribbean during this era. After the end of the Napoleonic Wars, HMS Pomone continued to serve the Royal Navy in various roles, including anti-slavery patrols in the West Indies. Her career came to an end in 1811 when she accidentally grounded off the coast of Guadeloupe and was subsequently scuttled to prevent her from falling into enemy hands. Despite her relatively short service life, HMS Pomone is remembered for her contributions to the Royal Navy's successes during the tumultuous years of the Napoleonic Wars and her role in safeguarding British interests in the Caribbean.

Such a huge range of different frogs available, which made my choices very difficult and now the reason I have a whole draw full of cards and postcards! Much better quality than you can buy in the shops and they are exactly on the subject I love and adore too.
