Picture Postcards From all Around the World: Italy, Japan, France and Germany

Welcome to my blog!

Well, this is my second blog of postcards, the first one was created using mostly those from a family collection and as it became so 'addictive' I decided to start a whole new site.

The postcards should be of interest to all ages, race and religion as they are from many countries around the world. Postcards through the ages show how areas have developed throughout time and this site has both new and old postcards, I hope an interesting mix.

Every picture tells a story...just as beauty is in the eye of the beholder...

Finally, if you want a better view of the pics, just click on them to enlarge
