Stamps
The back of the postcard is almost a postcard in itself, covered almost entirely with the minisheet and the two butterfly stamps.
This postcard travelled almost 5 months to reach its destination. Well, Sao Tome is far away, but….. there is another reason. Our local mailman decided not to deliver all of the mail, but save some in his garage. He was caught recently and about a week ago I found appr. 60 postcards in my mailbox. My missing postcards since 2011!
Wow! São Tomé e Príncipe is definitely one of the hardest countries to get! Congratulations. :-)
