vintage and contemporary postcards and stamps from around the world

dark

These are indeed dark times, certainly not expected when I chose this theme.


This was my original choice for a dark stamp. It shows the Princes' Gates in Toronto, one of the entrances to the Canadian National Exhibition grounds.

 

 

But here is another, for Ukraine, showing a giant Pysanka in Alberta. It celebrates the harmony, vitality, and culture of the community.

When I visited Canada, I sent some postcards with that second stamp. I found the roadside attractions were funny and informative stamps.

I didn't feel like publishing dark stamps today, so I chose a different theme... I hope you don't mind! See my post here.

Hi, I think we're all thinking about the Russian invasion of Ukraine this week, and adjusting our posts in light of it.
