Stamps / philately / postcards

We're in love with stamps and postcards from the Soviet Union and the Eastern Bloc. It's all about the space race, sports, industry, flags, ribbons, the Olympics, friendship-bonds between countries. Some postcards are signed, some unsigned. We've got first-day stamps as well. All items are little paintings taking us back in time
