You can play "guess who" on the official website, which has a preview of all the works alongside a separate list of the artists involved. The pieces will also be available for inspection in person at the gallery from 12 November. The auction is open to online bidding via theauctionroom.com and will also be live-streamed. In total, there are 440 postcards up for sale, with proceeds going towards the Hepatitis C Trust's campaign to eliminate the virus as a major public-health concern by 2030.
