ShangHai


It it very nice when someone on holidays cares enough to send you a postcard from their destination. In this case, not one, but two were sent by Bree (China) on 22 February. They landed here on 3 April


She was told at the post office that they had only one kind of stamp. Quite strange, because it was issued in 2004 (!). Both postcards bear the same, a beautiful illustration of a Yellow-bellied Tit (Periparus venustulus).

  1. That's really odd, since I can't imagine the price stayed the same all this time.

    1. The year isn't on the stamp, I found it in a philatelic database.

      A letter to you in 2004 would have cost 0,77€, Now it's 2,10€.
