Incoming: vintage from Belgium

I just realised that I'm behind on posting stuff, this mail from Yves arrived in the beginning of April, and it's June now. Well, some catching up to do!
Yves is my Instagram friend and collects vintage stationary. After he posted the postcard in his feed, we wondered why in the olden days people put stamps on the front of the postcard instead of the back. And I still don't know really. Kinda curious. He remembered us discussing this (digital discussion) and sent it to me! I love it! I also like the vintage birth announcement of Pierre, which is vintage letterpress (where you can feel the print inside the paper with your fingers).
