u/Classic-Power-333: Thank you so much for being my lone piece of happy mail today with your World Postcard Day 2026 postcard; I am happy to add yours to the few sent to me in celebration by generous members of the community. Please expect a World Postcard Day themed postcard from me in return.

u/rare_cranberry_7861 x5 - Thank you so much for your postcards from this past summer! My sincere apologies for the delay in thanking you; please expect a postcard from me in return.

First, I loved your Hello! postcard of beautiful sea creatures!

Second, the Petty Family Squabble by Glen Baxter postcard was quite the unexpected sight!

Third, I enjoyed your postcard of the Bakhtiyari-Lor Saddle Bag.

Fourth, my favorite from this past summer was your postcard of a rotary telephone alongside breakfast!

Last but not least, thank you for your postcard of the Rubell Family Collection!

u/jasisjas - Thank you so much for your beautiful Keeper of the Plains postcard! Aaron Santry’s photo during sunset is absolutely incredible. I loved reading about its history from you, especially the Native American side, and I am compelled to hopefully in the future see it in person surrounded by flames at the base of the rock. Please expect happy mail from me in return.

u/jasisjas - Thank you so much for your Railroad postcard! It was a beautiful surprise. I loved your postcard stamp as I have never seen it before. I always adore reading about your family trips. I would love to read more about the music store and printing press! The last time I used a printing press was at Shakespeare’s Globe in London. Happiest of Birthdays to your Grandma! May I send a Birthday Card for you to share with her? No problem at all if it would be too weird for a perfect stranger to send a Birthday Card.

u/gooblegobbleable - Thank you so much for your Louisiana food postcard! Is it homemade? I love that you talk about what you’re going to eat while you’re eating! I really wanted to make it back down there this year after a decade-plus away but scheduling conflicts as always. I absolutely want to try a random corner store Shrimp Po-Boy! I just looked up a muffaletta and although I cannot have my brother would be game. I am on travel this weekend but I will be writing back to you as soon as I can!

u/iusiurandum - Thank you for The Reading Woman postcard! I have never visited the Museum of Fine Arts; how did you like it? Thank you so much for sharing how The Perks Of Being A Wallflower made you feel everything so drastically; I tell some people that it is the only book to ever make me cry. I have read it twice and hope to re-read it a third time. I enjoyed the movie very much too and own it on DVD!

u/sommeil_sombre, u/tigerlady13, u/morticia_devine, u/steph_peregrine, u/ninajyang, u/rare_cranberry_7861 - Thank you all very much for the amazing Ocean Shores Washington postcard; the octopus mosaic from a Lantern Press original poster reminded me for my favorite Netflix series of all-time The OA. I absolutely loved the Stamp Math having just started the practice myself; my favorite individual stamp was William Faulkner. Finally I was so happy to read about your tasty lunch!

u/Onelovelygurl05 - Thank you so much for your Henri Matisse painting postcard and for the exchange! He is a favorite artist of mine but not for this work. Did my stamps make it to you and have you re-watched Beauty and the Beast?! I absolutely loved your Stamp Math and stickers. I would love to do another exchange if you ever see any other stamps from me that you would like.

u/cidavid x 3 - Your latest happy mail left me absolutely stunned. I loved all three (3) of your postcards that you got from an auction but I especially loved Lady Liberty and the Brooklyn Bridge. I have such fond memories of walking across the Brooklyn Bridge and I never tire of seeing Lady Liberty in the distance. Thank you so much for including plastic sleeves for all of them; that was such a sweet gesture; I will be keeping all three (3).

Thank you as well for your incredible Stamp Math. It has provided me inspiration to step up because mine pails in comparison. I loved the Lady Liberty stamp; honorable mentions go to the UN (great nod to NYC) and squirrel.

Lastly, thank you so much for your wonderful letter on your amazing stationery. I really need to purchase appropriate stationery soon. I will be traveling this weekend; however I fully intend to send you happy mail in return.

You are one-of-a-kind!

u/sharp-ee: Thank you so much for your Flying Ford postcard! No need for you to be deeply envious because I know you will absolutely visit the Studios sooner than later; it truly was magical and awesome in every sense of the words. I hope to visit again with family.

u/LemonLolipopW - Thank you for your Cadet Chapel postcard! I enjoyed reading your hypothetical album titles as well as the genres! I particularly enjoyed the titles “Celestial” and “Wings born of Ash”. I also made a playlist of all of your music recommendations; I can already tell they will be very unique to my usual listens. I always enjoy hearing Tokyo Drift in Citi Field for New York Mets baseball player Kodai Senga although lately it has been replaced by Michael Jackson’s Beat It (no complaints!).

u/rare_cranberry_7861: Thank you for your postcard and truly lovely messages; please expect a card from me in return.

u/murdocniccalshasT1D - Thank you so much for your one-of-a-kind postcad with your new stamper! Seeing yours inspires me to consider my own eventually. I also appreciated your sticker, washi and Bruce Lee stamp!
