I love to collect & swap postcards. I like them sent naked. My favorites are historical, lighthouses, penquins, amusement parks, touristy, castles, stars, planets, the earth, Virginia, Mississippi, Las Vegas. But I appreciate any type you send. I also collect stamps so any different stamps you put on are a bonus. The only type I really don't want are ad cards.

Postage Stamps- I am a stamp collector, have been since I was a kid. I like any & all kinds of used/unused stamps from any country. I also use them in some of my crafts.

Stickers- My favorite stickers are ones with poems or sayings on them, USA patriotic, flags, historical, state. For my grandson- Thomas the Train, Backyardagins, trains, space, planets, cars, penguins. Not really into the tiny stickers, flakes I guess they are called, unless it's something that I collect. But any kind you send will be used or I will pass them on to someone who can use them.
