World Postcard Day 2024
What the heck is World Postcard Day, and why are we celebrating it? Well, the anniversary of the postcard is on October 1, when it was officially issued and recognized by a postal operator in 1869. They had been evolving since the 17th century, and the first World Postcard Day was held in 2019 to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the postcard. Postcards, like geocaches, help us to feel connected to people from all over. In order to earn the souvenir, we'll need to attend an event between September 29 and October 5, 2024.
