“A University of North Carolina student notices a new creation as he walks past the snow-covered Old Well on the UNC campus.” Well — if you’ll pardon the pun — it was kinda hard to miss.
This is an “official” Postcrossing card from my friend Britt, who was apparently thinking of sending me a card anyway when she drew my name out of the hat. She writes: “This is a card from the school I hopefully will be attending in the fall. Fingers crossed.” Naturally, I immediately sent her a good luck “V for Victory” card, which I did not have the foresight to scan before dropping it in the mailbox. So it goes.
From Postcardy:
Great postcard, cute snowman. I wish I had one of these. It doesn’t snow much there. I thought deckle edges were banned by the USPS. Or is this an older card?
From Chris Overstreet:
No, this is a modern card; I have never heard of any ban on deckled postcards. If you contact Britt via Postcrossing, maybe she can hook you up!
From Britt:
Hey, Chris! I got your card today, and I’ll scan it later and e-mail it to you. Thanks! It’s one of my favourites!
@Postcardy – I got this card when I visited Chapel Hill about 2 weeks ago. I have one more left, I think. Send me a message on Postcrossing, and I’ll be glad to send it to you!
From Postcardy:
@Britt – I don’t belong to Postcrossing & I don’t know how I would find you there. You can get my email address on postcardy.com (not my blog). If you email me your address, I will email my address and send you a postcard. Any preferences?
