Postcard Show

Thousands upon thousands of postcards lined up in boxes People from different lands milling about Cards of political figures actors, musicians A DELTIOLOGIST'S DREAM Money changes hands and hard fought deals are made Some scoff at this fine hobby But take a chance - come to a card show! If you remember the Beach Boys sang - those who don't just have to put it down" Postcard show (for those who don't know a deltiologist is someone who studies postcards)

There have been some interesting postcards made over the years that would be interesting to see some that have survived all these years..Great that you wrote about this topic and shared this with us..Thanks for the visit to my page..The poem I wrote was from a picture that I had put on here but the pictures can't be accessed anymore..Sara
