Monday's Postcard: More Racey Helps cards


The Tug 'O War

The Diving Board

Picking Blackberries

Catching the Post

Singing Practice

I have so many of these Racey Helps postcards. They were very popular during the 60's and 70's and were distributed by the Medici Society of London Each one is a little self contained story, as a kid, I would just gaze at them for hours, making up my own stories about what was happening in the world of the postcard.

Also as a side note, I am already thinking about the postcards I will be posting next year, for 2014. I want to post cards that I have received from friends and family over the years. If you would like to see a postcard that you have sent me, all it takes is a stamp!! My address is Amanda Arkebauer PO BOX 16131, Seattle, WA  98116

I remember these postcards. My mom has a ton of old postcards too. Maybe she'll share one with me so I can send it to you.

I don't specifically want old postcards.... I collect ALL postcards, just next year, I would like to concentrate on cards I have actually received from folks! Some of these will be antique cards or replicas of antique cards, but the majority of cards will be modern.
