#tbt When I had my postcard collection exhibited in 2013
It was fun and I loved the feedback, but putting it up and then down was more work than I imagined!
This blog is about old postcards, book illustration, history and culture of Russia and the Soviet Union. I'm a long time collector, and this blog is 10 years old.
