Johan, 44,000 postcards, to say I am impressed just doesn't express it. How long have you been collecting ? Are these all stamped and received through the mail ? I just can't get my head around how many that is. Where/how do you keep and display them ? I feel lucky to have received 2600 and that has taken me 6 years. Your mailbox must be full every day. Cheers to you. take care and keep collecting and Happy Collecting, Go for 50,000.
Thank you Daniel and Glenn. Yes I collect cards as long as I can remember (I'm 48 now). When I got married 20 years ago I had mayby 2000 cards buth then I started to go to flea markets (not that I didn't want to see my wife !)and at that time you could buy several hundreds (shoebox)for not so much money.Also via family and many friends (and friends of friends) I got large amount of postcards at a time.Later I bought some on ebay and Delcampe and also some on Postcrossing (official or private). I put some pictures in a post.
Wow! That's a lot of postcards. Congratulations! :-)
