TALK in ENGLISH - Visitors Corner - 2024

Oh and of course the Cartograaf is based in Leiden!

According to the website you can find her on the week market on Wednesday and Saturday. But maybe you can also pick up cards after making an appointment?

But Google also shows a physical shop on Lange Mare

I only ordered online :blush:

Great, thank you so much! :grinning::heartbeat:

Hello Edit,

Finally a big article in the Dutch newspaper, “de Volkskrant”, about Femke Bol! She does not get all the media attention she deserves.
Here are two pictures of the article. Please send me a PM with your address and then I will send the article to your daughters. Perhaps other postcrossers could check other national newspapers to see if they have published about Femke Bol recently.

Best wishes, Pia

Joris Ivens is a great documentary filmmaker of Netherlands. He has shot a lot of works about China and truly recorded the lives of ordinary Chinese people. So I hope to receive a postcard or stamp about himself or his works. As far as I know, Netherlands Post issued two stamps about him in 1995.
In exchange, you can choose postcard and stamp you want from this album.

Thank you very much.
Zhang

Stamps issued in 1995 are no longer valid in use, as they were franked in Dutch Guilder.

Dear @Zhang2020cn,

You may be able to find these stamps through ebay or marketplace.
These stamps are collector’s items.
There are probably stamp collectors who sell these stamps.

Utrecht:
is it possible to buy view cards at the main train station? And where exactly there? And is it possible to buy view cards also in Utrecht in town?

Floriade:
Does anyone know if and where there view cards or cards with floral motives can be bought? And for which price?

Thanks so much for your advice. :orange_heart:

Hello everyone,
I have bought too many postcards and would like to give some away. There are 15 cards, for the postage I would like two cards - I’ll add them - written and back with a stamp.
Is someone interested?

Hello
I’ve been clearing out and found these stamps from my last visit to the Netherlands in 2014.
Can you tell me if they are still valid, please?

Hi @xxxxyyyyzzzz, according to PostNL these stamps are still valid.

Hello Dutch friends, I spotted this on the English language Dutch news website I’ve been following since I lived in the Netherlands for a period 10 years ago: The postman rings...42 years later - DutchNews.nl
