Vacation places like the Grand Canyon, Disneyland and Yellowstone Park are fun to collect. Most big parks, restaurants and hotels have postcards with their photos on them. A book store or card store near your house probably has postcards of your town. They might show buildings, lakes or parks that you have visited. A good time to start your collection is when your family goes on a vacation.
Postcards make excellent souvenirs.
A souvenir is something you bring back from a trip to help you remember all the fun you had. New postcards at a store cost about 25 to 50 cents. For 10 or 15 cents you can buy an old postcard at a flea market. Not all old cards are cheap, though. Some can be very expensive.
