Last Sunday, we visited the International Collector's Fair in the city of Utrecht. Twice each year, this is the spot for an amazing assortment of antiques, bric-a-brac and second-hand trinkets. The postcard section is not as big as it used to be, but still, we met interesting people, bought dozens of postcards and other memorabilia, and had a lot of fun. And we did find some rarities and curiosities (for us anyway), which we like to share with you today and next Sunday.
