Abstract

Before me lies a collection of reprints of 27 postcards with a diversity of pictures on them: nature scenes; views of Warsaw: the river, and the town hall; ‘romantic’ scenes of boys or girls, and scenes that seen to come straight from the bible. One of them attracts extra attention: I’m looking at a flowery arrangement, and a date: 21-3-30. And furthermore: ‘+ 100 / − 4 /o 16’. Hieroglyphs? They do have a serious meaning.
