The modern "Fu Lu Shou" (福禄寿星)

"Cheers, everyone! "

The "Fu Lu Shou" ( 福禄寿星) are the three dieties of Good Fortune, Prosperity and Longevity in Chinese culture. What a "Special Occasion" to have them in Happy Valley (place of cancellation) for this maxicard!

Look, how happy they are and so am I ......

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".
