Got this postcard from the Netherlands! You might be able to guess where this lovely landscape photo was taken – yes, that is the surface of my self-proclaimed homeland, Mars! Courtesy of the Viking 2 back in 1976, we get to see not only the surface of the Red Planet, […]
This one is a meetup postcard from Belgium! Once again, an extraordinary work of art with this meetup card design – also love how it’s a maxicard-style one (is it still a maxicard if the stamp on the front is different from the picture, BTW?) This card also celebrates 15 […]
Here’s the last one of the unknown bundle! This one features a work of art by William Lionel Wyllie, or W L Wyllie, an English watercolor/oil painter of the last 1800s and early 1900s. Wyllie is considered to be “the most distinguished marine artist of his day”. The reason? He […]
I think this postcard may have been part of the earlier unknown bundle that I shared about, as it’s blank on the back. Here we’ve got five canine buddies, doing some synchronized panting! That’s an impressive shot – there must be something to the left of them that’s really appealing […]
We’re gonna go back to a few of my 2013 postcards! This Official Postcrossing card arrived from the Netherlands! Depicted is the coat of arms for Friesland, a northern province of the country. Sorry – “Friesland” is not somewhere you can find supersized servings of salted strips of potatoes… though […]
This Official Postcrossing card came to me from China! Forgive me if it looks like the picture is upside-down – the writing on the back is rightside-up this way, though I was unsure if the flowers should be pointed upwards or downwards This is what happens when my brain is […]
I got this postcard from Missouri! This was a card picked up during the sender’s trip to Missouri with her family – and it features Indiana, the Hoosier State! You can check out my April post for some info about this state: https://apostcardforyou.com/2020/04/for-the-last-time-whos-here/. But fear not, I’ll throw you some […]
This postcard reached me from Finland! This is a view of Rauma, a town located in the southwestern part of the country. Founded in 1442, it’s the third-oldest town in the country. Rauma is known for its paper and maritime (sea-based) industry as well as its bobbin lacemaking. You can […]
Here’s a cute Official Postcrossing card I received from Russia! Does this fellow/lass have a name? He/she is adorable as heck, holding that bagel/donut ever-so-shyly. Thank you bunches for sending me this postcard, Maria!
Gonna throw in some recently-received postcards before I continue with the bundle I’ve been posting about! Here is another adorable and remarkable meetup postcard from Finland! I regret to say… I missed celebrating the 15th anniversary of Postcrossing, so maaaajor shame on me for that. But the members of this […]
