The 35th annual BIPEX/Picture Postcard Show in September 2010 proved once again to be an upbeat and exciting affair. Two important exhibitions were on offer and collectors and dealers alike were able to meet and buy/sell/exchange Postcards and points of view in a great atmosphere and surroundings during the three days of the Show. Collectors were delighted with the vast and unique range of Postcards on offer - from high quality Art Nouveau and other popular high-flying themes to cheap boxes to browse and add to their collections. The show had it's usual share of first time visitors who found Postcards they were less likely to find anywhere else in the world.
