United States - Actress in Black & White

September 19, 2019

This fabulous card came to me from Magnus in the US.  He wrote a friendly note on the back and used some amazing stamps too, so this was a very good Postcrossing!

He wrote;

Hi Helen!
Hello from Virginia! My name is Magnus and I write postcards with my dad. I hope you like this postcard and the stamps! Have a good autumn! 😀

Marilyn Monroe

These are perfect stamps for me!  I loved receiving them.

Great Britain

This lovely card arrived in my mail slot with a friendly note on the back. It came from Iago in Britain.

He wrote:

"8th September 2019
Hi Helen!

I hope you are well. I am a Spanish medical writer living in London. I have recently visited the Cotswolds, an area of outstanding beauty in Oxfordshire.

I will visit Japan in December, so any recommendations around your area would be very welcome!

Best regards, Iago"

Ralf sent this card with a lot of writing on the back.  I was very happy to receive this card!

He said,
"Hello Helen!

It consists of currants rye place, milk porridge, honey, black bread, butter, quark, waffles, cinnamon and sugar, Burger Pretzel, cast-iron rusk, jam, sausage and ham. The coffee pot with the name 'Droppel-mina' as the queen of the table. "Koffedrenken..." means: drinking coffee with all the trimmings.
