Interesting Jim and Nigel regarding the apparent multiple locations given for the Lynton photo - presumably the original publisher of the postcard saw an opportunity to market his copyright image to other garage owners simply by hand photo retouching the facia board to suit. I have to say that now you mention it, even the Prideauxs' postcard looks to have been retouched in a number of areas - so whether the original photo was actually of their garage in Lynton is without additional contemporary photographic proof, impossible to say.

Here's another postcard showing Prideauxs' Barnstaple Square garage with the words 'Austin Cars' clearly shown on the fascia board. The building still exists but is now trading together with the taller building to its left as the Bike Shed.
