I didn't knew that a postcard can be used in other ways beside admire & collect it (yes, we could count bookmarking as well). But the card received few days ago proved me the contrary: you can play with it.
Name of the game? Wie moet er bier halen? (Who should get a beer?)
The rules are quite simple: you have to cut the center circle, put your middle finger inside and rotate it on the table. The person who it points to should get a beer. Nice!
The stamp has no face value and it's a part of Dutch Icons series. These stamps are marked "International 1" and are intended for international mail items up to 20g. As of 1 January 2014, the stamps Europe and Rest of World have been combined into the stamp International suitable for all destinations abroad.
Near the stamp there is a postal mark with the text schrijven zegt meer (= writing says more). It's the Dutch's Postal service way to encourage sending more and more letters and cards.
Thank You, Marjolein !
