Summary: love it!
Review: I have a bunch of the postcards from this collection hanging on the wall of my apartment. They are beautiful and striking - mini works of art! The postcards are square shaped and on high quality paper. They come in a funky metal tin. This collection is a really good value either as decor or to actually send the postcards. It would make a great gift. It is a well-edited collection of images from around the world which I highly recommend.

Summary: A Great Teaching Tool
Review: The cards are not only beautiful, but are very fine teaching aids. I use them as writing prompts for upper elementary and middle school kids, and they would work for adults as well. I've also used them in teaching English as a Second Language. It is nice to have interesting images to discuss, in any language. And, of course, they are excellent for art classes -- for discussions of line, shape, foreground, background, movement, focal point, etc. Oh, one more thing I use them for. My kids pick one a night, and we make up stories about what we see, or imagine we see, in the card -- where it might be, what the people might be doing, or some such flight of imagination. In short, this excellent set is a very versatile communication tool.
