ニューヨーク・タイムズのインスタグラム(nytimes) - 1月27日 23時30分

Stuff tends to collect in NYC. So, too, do collectors, who bring more stuff. It’s a cycle that has created huge collections in the city over the years — of art, antiques, manuscripts, classic cars, but also some unexpected items: glass eyeballs, buttons, fluff. And postcards. The world may have largely abandoned postcard writing, but #deltiology — or postcard collecting — persists. In New York, local deltiologists can be found at gatherings of the club, which for more than 7 decades has hosted shows and convened in hotels, churches and members’ living rooms. Like the postcards themselves, no 2 members of the Metropolitan Postcard Club of New York City are alike. Current members specialize in postcards of Broadway theaters; kilts; old Baku, Azerbaijan. The list goes on. “Still today in New York City you can find basements where there are cards 100 years old,” said Vladimir Ginzburg, the collector who was photographed here by @vincenttullo. “They were printed by Jewish, Polish and Russian immigrants. I worked 2 years in 1 basement. It belonged to 1 family. They were publishers, they had a store.” Visit the link in our profile to read @correality’s story about the postcard people of New York.
