I am glad you enjoy them. So many nameless photographers behind the postcards, I wish I could fine more about them than the few tidbits from the biggest publishers.📸

Thank you for the lovely remark! I myself enjoy finding scenery from old Japanese movies in the postcards, which are usually closer in time to when they were shot than we are. My favourite is the one of Tsurugaoka Hachiman Shrine that could have been a still from Ozu's Late Spring.

Thank you very much for the compliment! It is a niche subject, but I hope it finds its audience.
