I wish the post offices would go back to offering a ‘postcard rate’ making it much less expensive to send. We might all start sending them again then. Thanks for calling in. Barbara.

I don’t suppose there are that many. <br />I’m finding it hard to buy pretty cards to send to my granddaughters. There are plenty of photographic ones of buildings and the like, but it’s hard to find any ‘art’ cards like the ones I collect.

They are a set of Bonzo dog cards drawn by G. E. Studdy. The rest are in acid-free envelops stored in postcard sized stock boxes.
