Stamps & Postcards, in LIBREAS

April 13, 2006

I put down a little reflexion on collecting and bibliophilately in the current issue of the electronic journal LIBREAS . Library Ideas: Die Bibliophilatelie, das Sammeln und das Sein. Though the text is completely written in german all non-german-speakers may enjoy the small gallery which comes as an extra to the article: Gallery.

There are also two great picture postcards on the New York Public Library to be found in this issue of LIBREAS:

There is a short piece on some postcard which is a good example what a "postal librariana" is meant to in the current issue ejournal LIBREAS-Library Ideas. It is a postcard sent by Otto Glauning to Jacob ter Meulen stamped january/21st 1927:
