I don't collect art postcards, coloring postcards, ad cards, free cards or homemade cards.

If you like to collect postcards come join the group: Postcard Hideout and if you like map postcards come join the group: Map Card Lovers

I'm also looking for foreign banknotes, foreign coins, US National Parks quarters and US State quarters. Pressed pennies, too. Willing to do private swaps for these. Let me know what you would like in exchange for them. If you collect come join the group: Coin Hideout

If you receive a letter from Canada & the stamps on the outside are unmarked, I would love them.

I also collect used worldwide stamps, coins, bank notes, playing card jokers, & my daughter is a collector of Ty beanie babies, pez dispensers and pokemon cards.

My husband loves lawn tractor & tractor items such as posters, magazines, books, pins, John Deere collector cards, toys... anything tractors.

I am also a member of postcrossing.

I love all species of birds but my favorite is the owl.

Handmade return address labels made for me are always needed and welcome.

I am also looking for sticker sheets for children (girl 3-6 years old),pokemon cards or hockey cards (single or in a package).

If you don't get my item and it says it's been sent please contact me! I have had items go missing in the mail, I will always send every swap I join. If you haven't received anything from me, let me know, I can send it again.

Comment: Thank you for the nice male lions being affectionate to each other. They are probably brothers because I think male lions are pretty aggressive to other males unless they come from the same litter. Richard

I’ve received your Ph: postcard for your ideas RAK. For the ugly post card idea…..I actually really like the postcard you have chosen for me (the cat ears that you called strange 😅🫢) I think I adore everything about cats so it’s absolutely lovely for me 💕 however, I am definitely even more excited about the charity stamp you chose to send it with 🥰🥰🥰🥰 I haven’t received this stamp on mail since it’s been released, so it’s great to finally have one canceled 🤗
