I learned a lesson

When I googled for lotus images, some "lotus images" popped out to be similar to my ad card of "lotus" in my earlier post. One of my "lotus" postcards (below), was also misleading as my ad card looked "more lotus" than the "lotus" shown on it. I was confused....

I should have wikipedia'd and checked further to confirm. A good lesson to learn indeed. Sharing with you here another ad card on lotus (already confirmed by Sifu - Mr. Ye Choh San).

Fun and joy in maxicards

The creation of a maxicard involves the hunting of a postcard in concordance with the stamp and getting it postmarked at the place of concordance after the stamp has been affixed to the view side of the postcard.

The procedure looks simple, but quite often a beautiful maxicard is ruined by poor postmark(unclear or messy). Sad to say, there is no remedy to it and unlike in other fields of stamp collecting where "error" is well-liked, you are fearful of "error" here. Nevertheless, it's a rewarding hobby as every piece of maxicard you've realized reflects your pain and joy in creating it and you will sure to treasure it for life.

It's a journey to enjoy - from the "Miniature window" to the "Maxima world".
