CITY/REGION: Evanston, Illinois, USA MEETUP PLACE: Blind Faith Cafe, 525 Dempster St DATE: August 10, 2024 (Saturday) TIME: 2-3:30pm MEETUP PLAN: Chat about postcards and postcrossing, sign cards, have a good time
This is a mini-meetup for up to 10 people. Please indicate if you are coming by sharing your intention in this thread.
The following meetup card is available for 25c each for attendees and for trade for those who cannot make it.
If you’re going to Blind Faith Cafe, there’s a place called Squeezebox at 743 Main in Evanston which is about five blocks from the cafe. They sell books and records and they have a rack of both vintage and new postcards, including some by cartoonist Heather McAdams.
I also really like Squeezebox and shop books there often! Many of their postcards are from postcard books. They sell them with a significant upcharge compared to buying the book, but of course if you just want a couple, it’s a nice option to have.
Oh my goodness. This is perfect for me as i will be driving through the area that day. Count me in. If you are taking orders for postcards, i will take 15. Thanks!!
