Spain - Vintage Berlin street scene

Wonderful vintage card of Berlin from David. Classic b/w with scalloped edges.  From his grandfather. 

Germany - Vintage Soup Ad

Another wonderful vintage ad reproduction postcard.  Thank you! 

Taiwan - Needlework

Hsien-Chang has sent me this beautiful needlework postcard.  It's absolutely lovely, thank you!

Swap - Elvis, Tupelo Mississipi, 1956

Hard to believe that if Elvis were alive he'd be turning 80 next month. I love this postcard from Eric as it is just a very cool shot.

I think I just set myself a goal for 2015.  Since Elvis turns 80 years old, how about I have 80 Elvis postcards in my collection by this time next year?  Hey, that sounds fun! Can you help me out?

RAS - Mr. PG

A contest win!  Thank you to Angie Joiner for this lovely self-designed postcard.  Happy Anniversary to Prince George, BC. May you have many more! 

Swap - Groovy glittery VW Bus

What a wonderful card from Rebekka!  I love the groovy flowers and the glitter.  Such a fun little camper van! 

December NA RR - Charlie Brown Christmas

What a perfect postcard to receive on Christmas Eve!  I adore it!  The artwork on the back by 4 year old Sofia makes it extra special. :)
