Just wanted to say thanks to all you nice folks who have been reading my blog. This is my "silly" outlet - sharing my mail and my lopsided view of the world with you.
Today's post has no particular theme except that I find all the cards interesting in some way. I hope you do too.
When I got this next card I assumed it was from Russia and was surprised to turn it over and see that it was from Hong Kong. I think some people are just out to confuse me. From what I can tell, this card celebrates the 40th anniversary of the 1917 Bolshevik revolution. If you missed this event, you can watch an old British black & white newsreel to see the festivities.
