Description:
This swap is for collectors of map postcards. If you do not own any map postcards, go out and buy some before joining. If you don't know what a map postcard looks like, go into My Flickr Photos in my profile and look at the top two rows. NO handmade map postcards are allowed. You must be a good swapper to join up, I will be on the lookout for people with too many no sends. There will be five partners, so send one map postcard to five people. International people are welcome to join. Postcards should be written and stamped, unless your partners profile says otherwise. Have fun!

Do we sent the card in envelope or written and stamped? Katka

You can send it written and stamped, thanks.

can I join and have preferences in envie?

You should have that in your profile if you want it in an envelope. Or you can contact the people who will send postcards to you when the addresses go out, by clicking on the rate your partners and clicking on their profile link.

If you need to find postcards, you can always buy some in a gas station (or ask the clerk where to find postcards), gift shop at any attraction, Wal-Mart sometimes has them, Walgreens usually does have them, grocery stores, online at eBay or for the best postcards check out http://www.pomegranateartbooks.com and look for postcards on their website.

I'm gonna try my best to find some, but I'm in Alabama and apparently they don't sell those anywhere anymore. I tried on eBay and only found antique postcards from the 40s for like $5 each.

I luckily live in a tourist town so it's always easy to find postcards, even with maps; even at WalMart! I've got mine and I'm waiting for the fifth!

where i live, i can usually find them in Publix grocery stores and WalMart, and they are typically only 25 cents apiece- good luck grassbeneathmyfeet!

Heres a link to a forum discussion on places to find postcards ~postcards?~

Another good place in my area is the drug store, card store and university book store .

MAP cards are in the mail! Two are going to partners in the town of California and three to partners in the state of California! Kinda odd! :D

dandelion, I was thinking the same thing. I also have two partners in the state of California and two in the town of California :) My cards are in the mail as well.

Hurray, this is the first time I've got all five post cards in a really timely way in one of this series of swaps. Many thanks to all my partners.
