Gotochi Postcards from Japan

Gotochi Postcards from Japan

Gotochi postcards come from Japan and have become collector's items worldwide. For several years, a new card was issued in each province every year with typical highlights of the respective region. And as a rule, only designs from the respective region were available in the post offices. In the meantime no new designs are issued and most are sold out so they are true colector`s items. Maximum 1 per design per person.

Absolutely fascinating! A few years ago, we traveled through Japan and (of course) visited one or two post offices. We were excited every time we discovered new Gotochi cards. So we came back with some selected Gotochi cards in our luggage. We are delighted every time we look at them. We are now giving away part of our small, fine selection. So you can enjoy them too. The Gotochi cards are unique in design and shape and always have a special form. Depending on the country, higher postage may be required than for a standard postcard.

StampID for Postcrossers
StampID - the new Must-Have for Postcrossers to have the ID stamped! We took great care in designing this rubber stamp for you that puts you in a position to stamp the postcard ID for your Postcrossing postcards rather than to write them. 11 adjustable rubber stamp elements do the magic. The first two digits are letters and represent your country, so you switch to NL if you are in the Netherlands, FI if in Finland, US for the United States, CA for Canada, RU for Russia and so on. The third digit is an "-", followed  by 8 digits for numbers to build any number up to 99999999. Does this sound crazy? Absolutely! Does this sound complicated? It is not once you try it, it is rather much fun and we can assure you your postcards for Postcrossing get a really cool look! We have been always dreaming about such a tool and are happy we can provide it to you! The letter combinations cover more than 50 countries worldwide. Please check below for available letters to see if your country is covered. It is great to use for travel mode, too. Enjoy exploring this little masterpiece! The rubberstamp comes in a box, also perfect for storage when traveling. The stamped postcard ID is 4 mm high and maximum 4,5 cm long. Available letters... ... first digit: A B C D F G I L N P S U R ... second digit: A B E H I L O R S T U Z N
