2023's First Cards

BLOG # 1585 --- Day 314 of the Russian Invasion of Ukraine

                                                                    GLORY TO UKRAINE



Well hello again, hello 2023, Happy New Year to you one and all. I hope your mailboxes are filled with at least one postcard everyday of the year. That would be perfect , wouldn't it ? So here's a few cards that I found in my mailbox recently. 

This first card is a view of the Palace of Fine Arts located in Mexico City. It was inaugurated in 1934. 



Tanja used a 2021 definitive from a set of 13 , all showing Handicrafts. 



Today's second card arrived from Zanzibar, Tanzania. It shows a view of part of Urguja Island as seen from the Hotel Kilimanjaro. Urguja is often commonly called  Zanzibar Island. 



Jean Pierre used a stamp from 1983 , 1 of 4 in a set showing Historical Buildings. 



Ghana is up next. Bruce's card shows us a number of handicrafts and artwork from Ghana. 


Bruce used 3 copies of a definitive from 2012. It is 1 of 10 in a Fruits and Vegetables set. The larger stamp was issued in 2011 and showcases the National Senior Football Team, The Black Stars. 


Well that's all for this time. Today I have to thank Tanja, Jean Pierre and Bruce for these cards . 

Take care now and I'll be back soon.
