I have decided to collect postcards and mail art of CLOCKS during 2015. They can be clocks in any form - I bet there is a clock postcard in your collection of cards to send. So any will be gratefully received and will be posted on this blog. If you haven't corresponded with me before please feel free to e-mail scriptorsenex at gmail dot com to ask for my address. All cards and mail art received will generate a card from me to you so if we are not regular correspondents please put your address on the card. Thank You! John Edwards

No 41 - Home Sweet Home

From Susanne in Germany came this wonderful card by Suzan Visser.


Susanne won one of three prizes given by the German post to celebrate 10 years of Postcrossing - some Postcrossing stamps.  She kindly used one on this card for me.

No. 29 - An Hour-glass

Here, from Susanne, is another form of 'clock' - an hour-glass, also known as a sandglass, sand timer, sand watch, sand clock, or, most commonly, an egg timer.


The text reads - "There are times when everything is upside-down."

No. 5 - Pocket Watches

Courtesy of my friend Susanne in Germany I got this super card of pocket watches.  Like me, Susanne loves pocket watches. I think they are so stylish and Susanne reckons men in suits look adorable!    After years of wearing a suit day in day out, I never seem to wear a suit nowadays  though sports jackets and open neck shirts are more my thing nowadays.  I've never owned a pocket watch.  I find wearing a waistcoat too hot so I wouldn't be able to show one off to its best advantage..
