Library postcards

I have a small but increasing collection of librariana, especially postcards. Note that these show public libraries, university libraries and even private library rooms, the rationale for their collocation being the L word. Books do furnish a room, and postcards also.

Sincere thanks to the several people who have made donations and exchanges. I have a very small number of duplicates to swap; email me for details.
