Queen of the Ocean - Titanic

This gold medal card received from Ande who visited Belfast and thought of me.

New Disneyland postcards

Wow! Disneyland are opening some new attractions in June and have launched a series of promotional postcards to coincide. Not sure if they are 'limited edition' or will become common souvenir stall items. See the rest of the set here.

Vintage Lufthansa

Thought this might have been a modern re-interpretation, but delighted to discover it is in fact a reproduction of famous Walter Rau Lufthansa poster from mid-1950s. Thanks Sabine

Celebrations, Pyongyang, North Korea.

You don't get many of these. From my adventurous travel pal, Kris. Pyongyang. If they knew she was a journalist, she'd be thrown out. Unfortunately one stamp was torn off. Cheap North Korean glue, no doubt. (Same stuff holding the country together)

FJ Holden

The successor to the original 48-215 (FX) the FJ was the iconic Australian car of the 1950s, manufactured from 1953-56 with 169,969 produced. Very few remain and are highly prized.

Nepal: The Living Goddess Kumari

From my wide-eyed and well-travelled pal Ewen. We travelled together to Antarctica in December 2010. Ewen is a gifted photographer and conducts his own tours.
