About a month ago, we’ve enlisted the help of the Postcrossing community for the celebrations of the 150th anniversary of postcards. The plan is to take over a wall at the Universal Postal Union's headquarters in Bern 🇨🇭 and fill it with messages showing the world’s enthusiasm for postcards.
Since then, we’ve received dozens of postcards from you guys, and we’re feeling quite overwhelmed by this avalanche of mail. Your kind words and all the memories you’ve been sharing with us about postcards are just incredible! All the stories, poems, drawings and carefully crafted pieces of mail art make our hearts melt.
Over the past few weeks we’ve uploaded a few of the postcards we’ve received on the 150yearsofpostcards.com gallery… but we thought perhaps a video would be a better way to showcase more of them. So without further ado, here it is:
We hope you liked it! Please don’t be sad if you don’t see your postcard on this video though, as this is just a small selection. Many more have arrived in our PO box, and we treasure every single one of them. 😊
If you haven’t sent in yours yet, what are you waiting for? Send us a postcard telling us what makes postcards special to you, and join us in this worldwide celebration!

Cool! A postcard from my country made it to the video! (It's the postcard of the girl dropping postcards in a red postbox at 2:23 by Inspiredby.ph) Mabuhay Philippines!
How wonderful! :-)

PS.: I'm ashamed that I haven't sent it yet.... :(
But today is the day!
Thank you for this opportunity to communicate with the world in such a beautiful way.
such a beautiful video!
Loved the video...as always, it was so creative. Postcrossing cards and stories could fill entire DVDs and be seen with great interest over and over again. (Taking over a wall at the Universal Postal Union HQ? Postcrossing may need an entire room.)
I hope my postcard will be arrive soon to postcrossing po box 😭
Wisconsin kringle made the cut haha love it

So many nice postcards - is there stil time to send one? I could not open the link to the participation conditions so I don't know if there is a "dead line"
Thanks for sharing all these nice postcards in the videaos and the texts on the other side.
Great postcards, I hope that you get the one I sent in a few weeks
Super video! Beautiful postcards, three of my cards are now on their way and want to celebrate with me. 😊
