I'm a long time postcard collector and have been recently been posting some of my collection on my [visual journal] blog.<br />Would you mind if I put a link to your blog from my 'blog-roll' list?<br /><br /><br />Removed stamps: My father-in-law used to collect stamps. He'd buy old postcards, remove the stamps and set the postcards aside for me. I didn't fully appreciate the practice but did not complain about the free cards. I did however tell him that my posted cards were off limits as that the postings were part of the appeal of the collection.I tried to encourage him to just keep the stamps where they were and keep that as part of his collection. He did not see the full value of this advice.K.S.

But, with your example, you still have a wonderful card - and so nice to find one from that particular decade, when card sending seemed to become so rare.Alan Burnetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01015127443616786425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3323012003780250968.post-79361083706015964342012-01-11T02:13:52.119-08:002012-01-11T02:13:52.119-08:00Thanks Christine, that sounds like it.

It has since been demolished and will be replaced by a building that resembles the original palace, at least on the exterior.Christine H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09786732494496282743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3323012003780250968.post-35534552657889531502012-01-10T09:06:06.093-08:002012-01-10T09:06:06.093-08:00Yes, interesting and sad -- she wouldn't have ...Yes, interesting and sad -- she wouldn't have wanted to stay.

Is it where the building with all the glass is (or was, I saw it in the 1980s, so I don't know what is there now)?Lisa Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10562101358640638937noreply@blogger.com
