The Stazione Idrotermale Climatica - Balneare; Garden of the Penisola Sorrentina, Vico Equesne, Italy

This was sent by Gefy, Ely, Robi and Jhonny to Linuccia in Napoli in October 1988. Their message on the reverse of the Postcard ended "Panorama Stupendo!"

Panorama Boringo?!

Comment by Bradford on June 28, 2021 at 6:04pm: The stamp is interesting; a Medieval woodcut of a fisherman.

Comment by Valentine Mark Herman on June 28, 2021 at 5:49pm: Do the hippos look Bored, or are they enjoting themselves 'wherever they are)?

What does the message on the back of the card say? "Here I am with young Pieter at Warsaw Zoo'?

Comment by Raphael Nadolny on June 28, 2021 at 2:41pm: I got a postcard from Wrocław (Breslau). It shows two hippos, photo taken in the mid-1970s. These hippos could live in any zoo in the world. There is no distinguishing feature in the photo that this is Wrocław, in Poland.

Comment by Raphael Nadolny on June 27, 2021 at 6:32pm: Nowy Targ, Poland, about 1975 year. Post card send to ma by my Grand Mother.

Comment by Valentine Mark Herman on June 23, 2021 at 6:19pm: I CAN'T SEE IT, CAN YOU?

This is a Boring Postcard of le Moulin (the windmill) de Rosmadec, Pon-Aven in France.

I can't see a windmill: can you?
