This blog is about old postcards, book illustration and all kinds of paper whimsy from the Soviet Union. I'm a long time collector, and this blog is 7 years old. I have an etsy shop for cards, books, pins and vintage finds from Russia.

To all the girls and women reading this
Happy Women’s Day! The usual wishes for this day go along the lines of ‘be beautiful’ and ‘be lovely’, but that’s not what I want for you. For us. I want you to be strong. To stand for what you believe is true. To fight for your dreams. To never, ever feel inferior.
We can do it all!
