Now this postcard comes from Belfort in France. I had to look it up. Wikipedia says,
Belfort (German: Beffert) is a town and commune of north-eastern France, préfecture (capital) of the Territoire de Belfort département in the Franche-Comté région. Population (1999): 50,417. Approximately 60,000 including suburbs.
It is located on the Savoureuse, on the strategically important natural route between the Rhine and the Rhône – the Belfort Gap (Trouée de Belfort) or Burgundian Gate (Porte de Bourgogne).
So we’ve cleared that up. Now this postcard comes from Christian who runs his own postcard site – who knew! You know it is interesting. When I came up with this idea I thought no-one else was doing it. Well, they are, but slightly different. Christian’s site http://www.canyousendmeapostcard.com/ aims to collect as many postcards as possible and he scans both sides on. Cool.
Christian doesn’t offer a tip as such, except to visit his site. Fair enough. Thanks Christian!
