    1. Hello Dan, Yes they can be addictive. and it's necesary to keep a cold head many times. I started it just as a project for school (my main collection is Roman coins) http://www.grifomultimedia.it/adg/monrom/Index.htm

      But I got more involved as I saw the graphic and historic posibilities of the cards.

      This postcard which follows is of the same serie as the Battisti ones. This one if of the execution of another Italian hero, Lt. Damiano Chiesa. A pilot whose excution was also photographed and transformed into post cards to scare the resistence in the Trentino. The outrage of the Italians was such that soon the Austrians stoped issuing them and tried to recall the ones already in circulation.

    2. I started collecting World War I postcards with the idea of presenting them as a class aid at my XXth century European class at Universidad de Lima. I found they could be so interesting that got very involved in the subject. Finally, being a compulsary collector I started getting any I could. Here I will show my collection. Not a large nor fantastic collection but which may help some forum members to put in place some of the objects of their own interest.

    4. Good morning, this is my first post in this section of the forum. I have this decoration with the inscription: CAROLVS D.G. IMP. AVST. REX BOH. ETC. ET REX APOST. HUNG. /FORTITUDE. The engraver is "Kautsch". I was told that this is a First World War decoration. Could someone please give me some details.
