Firstly I'd like to introduce myself. I live in La Rochelle in France and moved out here last year from Hertfordshire. I own a website called fuelmyblog.com hence the username, so if anyone has a blog, be good to see you.
Why did I join? I have a collection of thousands of postcards dating from 60's and 70's right up to present day, a total range covering every subject known.
I just found one in there with a 1904 watermark so have some "old ones" too. Just wondered if anyone knew of any rare cards or a way of insuring (if they are worth anything), I may be able to help with anyone looking for collectors cards, I haven't opened the storage box in 15 years so who knows what'll be in there, I have stacks to add to it too.
I'll take a look when I get a minute, are all postcards of interest to people or simple those with an old date or certain subject ie cartoon? What should I look out for? Any top tips would be welcome, I only really want the cards that relate to my family and friends.
Hello Kevin. Welcome aboard. When you do "Open up" and find any comic picture postcards, then keep old "John Boy" here up to speed!!!
