All the sea life was moved to San Diego. At the time it was the worlds largest oceanarium and housed the world most specatacular Circus of Maine Life.In this blog I wish to share postcards from my collection with others, as there are many different catagories of postcards. I also will share what I am currently selling on Ebay. I like selling, buying and trading postcards. The Plus in the title is for the handcraft items I make and collect. Also for all the ephemera I collect.

Thank you for that information Judy..I never knew that. You have such neat Post cards. I have a bunch that were my Grandmothers and will have to go through them and look at them closer. :)
