Russia - Writer

December 5, 2016

This card, with a friendly note on the back, came to me from Russia. I always enjoy reading what people write on cards, so if you are going to send me a card, write a lot please!

"Hello Helen!
My name is Oleg and I live in Kaliningrad City on the Baltic Sea Coast.  I have chosen this card by your wish list.  On the card you may see the great Russian writer L. Tolstoy(1828-1910).  The most known his novel 'War and Peace'.
Best wishes and Happy New Year!
Oleg"





I have never read Tolstoy.  Maybe I will one day.

These stamps are rather interesting.. horses and Christmas.  Lovely!
