dejance's topic made me think it would be nice to keep some old postcards here in the archive section. I'll translate the French if no one can read them. Here are ones I really like:

"A Well"

"A Macedonian Family"

Image
"A Macedonian Farmer"

Image
"A Macedonian Woman"

Image
"Kirech Koeny - Indigenous Women" (This is from a Macedonian village outside Solun)

It might be!

I had some relatives visit this weekend and they brought with them a black & white postcard along with some old photos, and it was my grandmother and her siblings on the postcard and all this time they had no idea!!! :lol: Apparently it was quite popular to make your own photo-postcards. I wish I had a scanner I could post my very own family postcard :D I wonder if people still do this? I've never heard of making your own postcards before.
