Maxicards chat

In Brazil, very seldom Postal Service prints postcards with the image of stamp and matching sealing.
Personally I rather prefer to hunt for a matching postcard and battle to find where to have the postcard cancealled.

:mag_right:It is kind of puzzle, building parts, having fun, and ending with nice pieces to send to those that enjoy it. :arrow_forward:

That’s not Russia’s usual stamp design style, is it? From Russia, I rather know illustrations on stamps. Or is this an illustration as well? Looks like a photo from here. :smiley:

I think it’s a photo:) And i think this time they did it because it’s a joint release with Korea

I’d love to receive maxicards. I feel I’m more interested in a postage stamp whenever there’s “something else going on around it” :smiley:, so that includes covers, souvenir sheets and yes, maxicards.

Welcome to see part of my maxicards collections,
let me know your philatelic comments,
also welcome to exchange in any time.
Thanks.

@DianeM, I got the same card but I think from a different user.

Japan Post issues maxicards and first-day covers. Most maxicards and FDC I have seen bear the Tokyo stamp. However, there is a post office in downtown Nagoya that does issue maxicards. I am going to go and take a visit in a week and so as I want some maxicards. (They actually make the cards in front of you, so what a postal employee has told me).

@meiadeleite, the first one (see below) is such a beautiful maxicard!

It is indeed, I like it too — I tried to handpicked the nicest examples I could find from my country :blush:

If you can share some photos of the maxicards you see being made in Nagoya, I think that would be super interesting!

I have received several maxicards from swaps for my Olympics cards collection, mostly from Australia, China and Portugal. :slight_smile:

Otherwise, for officials, I have received the following maxicards, which all made me pretty happy:

:disappointed_relieved:Two months ago, I bought some COVID-19 postcards and stamps so I posted my first offer here. Someone mentioned that I can make mixicards with them. I didn’t realize that I should put the matched stamps on the front of cards and go to the post office to get the special postmark too. So I told them of course I will use the matched stamps! Now I think they might be looking at the cards with stamps on the back, saying “what a pity”. :pensive:

Didn’t realize there’s a maxicards chat until now :joy: I love them and bought some from the post for collection. This year I also order some and I’m going to send them out starting from June.
