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.

Mailed to Mrs. Roy Stouder of Goshen Indiana. Letter passed by Navy Censor.
Interesting enclosures - long letter to his wife about finances, attending picture shows and general news. The INTERESTING enclosure is a list of Code that Roy will use to tell his wife where he is located. He even gave some example sentences such as.......Cigarettes are sure scarce here, sometimes Id almost walk 500 miles for one (meaning we are about 500 mi north of the Philippines.
Here are some of the words that if he uses them in his letter
Chevron - Russia
