Austria - Tea

 Received April 24, 2026

Alessandra sent this card to me from Vienna, Austria. She asked me if I knew that snow globes were invented in Vienna in 1900. Nope would be my answer! One of the stamps on this card shows the inventor of the snow globe, Erwin Perzy. Unfortunately, Alessandra didn't mention tea at all, but she did include a sticker that I liked a lot!

Here are the stamps she used on the back of the card.

And the cool sticker that I can get behind....

Me too!

Black & White Actress Card

Received April 22, 2026

This is my favourite type of card!  It's a black and white card of an actress that I have never heard of before, causing me to do a bit of research on IMDb to find out more information. Yay!

Naveen wrote that this card shows Keerthy Suresh in the movie Mahanati (2018). It's a film biopic of the legendary actress Savitri. I haven't seen this film of course, but the actress whose life it was based on was an interesting person!

Keerthy Suresh as Savitri

He also used some cool stamps on the card that I haven't seen before. 

Thanks for a cool postcard!

The Netherlands

This card came to me from Liesbeth in the Netherlands. She used a few stickers and a lot of stamps on the back . It's a beautiful looking place.

     

These are very cool stamps!  

Thanks Liesbeth!

United States of America - Book Related

Received April 21, 2026

Alison sent this card with its picture of Herman Melville's chimney/fireplace.  The blurb on the back of the card says that Melville wrote some of his novels here, including Moby Dick.

I love books, but to be honest, I loathed Moby Dick! I think I skipped a lot of the book as I just couldn't get into it. I had to read it at college. 

Thanks Alison!
