About Me

I LOVE POSTCARDS. I am very fond of cool postage stamps. I also like nice writing utensils. Walking into a stationery shop will often increase my heart rate. Fave colour is turquoise.


More on Postcards

I'll always appreciate any card with a nice, written message, or any card that genuinely represents the sender's interests. So, don't stress out - this is supposed to be fun :)


Seeking

Will trade you some amazing mac + cheese for some blank BANKSY postcards. The only ones I've been able to find are the Banksy vs. Bristol Museum Official Postcard Set. Also looking to trade for some blank KEEP CALM AND SEND A POSTCARD cards from the UK.


Faves

Cards I collect (in no particular order):

  • Vintage & Retro PCs
  • B&W photography
  • Pulp Fiction book cover art
  • Travel/Highways/Hotels/Motels
  • Pop Culture
  • Strange/Unusual/Goofy/WEIRD
  • Street Art/Graffiti/Urban
  • Landmarks/Buildings/Prisons/Museums
  • Art/Design/Architecture/Sculpture
  • TWINS
  • Buddha
  • Scenic Views/Deserts/Southwest
  • Mail Themes: Airmail/Stamps/Mailboxes/etc.
  • Libraries/Books
  • Planes/Trains/Automobiles
  • Maps
  • Anthropomorphic
  • Sasquatch/Bigfoot/Yeti :)
  • Places: Vancouver, Hong Kong, Paris, Seattle, Portland, New Orleans, Baltimore, San Francisco, New York.
  • Animals: any kind of CAT or dog, foxes, squirrels, pigeons, owls, donkeys, fish, octopus, LIONS, anything.

Preferences & Exceptions

I'm not a huge fan of younger kid-type cards, Disney, etc., but I understand that some people like them and that's cool. I DO enjoy graphic novel type art/comics/etc.

Suggestive postcards are fine. I'm over 21, I swear! Nothing degrading or realistically violent though, cuz that's just yucky.


Handmade cards: I like these, and have been the lucky recipient of some really amazing ones. I've also gotten rectangular-shaped pieces of scrapbook paper with little more than a stamp on them, as well as greeting/note cards cut poorly in half. I'd prefer not to receive the latter types.


Ad cards: Only if they're related to the list above, please. Wait. You think it's neat-O? Then by all means go ahead and send it. :)


Blank or written, depending on the swap. If it's anything from the list above, I dig them blank. If you'd prefer to write a nice message on them anyway, no biggie. I'll appreciate your words!

Comment: Sharon - I always love getting mail from you ;-) You once again sent a wonderful selection of PCs. . the Greyhound bus brings back memories for me when I was a kid and rode the bus to stay with my grandmother - she only lived 50 miles away but I felt like I was so grown up to take that bus all alone!! I also love the waterfalls - they are so beautiful and I never tire of seeing one. The Pikes Place Market is very interesting to see the 'then' and 'now' - how things change! And the thunderbird art PC is stunning! Thanks again for the wonderful PCs and hope to see you again soon ~~
Response: That's good, because I always enjoy sending to you :) That Greyhound made me laugh - you could fit a dance floor inside...

Comment: Thanks for the great set of postcards - some of my favorites: animals and universities! :)

Comment: Boy, you could not have picked any 3 postcards that I love. Gone With the Wind, lighthouses and of course the high kicking grannie(too funny) I used to be able to kick like that, but definitely not any more. I wouldn't even try, for fear of falling and hitting my noggin. Don't have many brains up there now, so I can't afford to loose any. Thank you again, Shirley
Response: Hahahaha!! Btw, I can't kick like that anymore, either...

Comment: Wow, what great postcards!!! Thank you thank you thank you! Warped Tour is at the Gorge every year and I've heard nothing but great things about it...so much that I toyed with the idea of taking a trip out there a couple of years ago to see Warped Tour there :)
Response: Really happy you liked the pcs. The Gorge - worth the trip. Don't forget to bring a tent and some wet wipes! ;)
