On World Postcard Day, which takes place on 1 October annually, I dropped on to Postcrossing.com to get a random address to send a postcard to mark this special day.
I got an address for a lady in Dallas, Texas in the United States of America. The profile of the recipient had an interesting hobby, miniature doll houses and other models. So I was able to send them a most appropriate postcard featuring a wooden model Georgian House.
The postcard features a 1:20 wooden model made from scratch by Lionel Currie, 1992. It was generously donated to the Building of Bath Museum in Bath by Flower and Hayes Joinery.
At the time of writing this post (2 November 2022), the Building of Bath Museum is temporarily closed for critical repairs and maintenance. You can find out more about the Building of Bath Museum at https://museumofbatharchitecture.org.uk
This postcard was sent on 1 October 2022 and travelled 4,628 miles, arriving in Dallas on 20 October 2022. This postcard was the 1500th one that I sent officially via Postcrossing.com
