About Peko...
I am a married guy, photo-artist and collector of postcards, tins and other advertisement stuff.
A few years ago I started my own postcard collection, which is be sold in the shops in our town.
I created my own blog about my cards, there is also a translator in this blog to choose your language for reading:

Me and my wife are living in Germany in Wuppertal - the unique town with "Flying Busses" - the Monorail Suspension Railway.
Links to videoclips about at the end of my profile !
We also have a small residence in Greece on the island Crete.
We like to use the possibilities for contacting people in the world by the WorldWideWeb.
I am interested in postcards with:
* VIEWS OF THE TOWN OR VILLAGE YOU LIVE
* PICTURES WITH BUSY STREETS to see the way of life in your place
* LARGE-LETTER-CARDS from the USA and elswhere
* WINDMILLS or LIGHTHOUSES
* OLD ADVERTISING MOTIVES from the 50ies and 60ies
* UNUSUAL BUILDINGS
* TRANSPORT VEHICLES like Trains, Busses, Suspension Rails, Taxis
* BRIDGES
* WELL DONE SELFMADE CARDS if you did it by yourself
" and older views of the towns out of the fifties and sixties.
I am not so interested in
Art, Animals, Flowers, Modern Comic, Costumes
But I will be pleased about any other interesting postcard, of course.
Please write something about you and your life.
