Ad card/Free Card Postcard Swap
Swap Coordinator:badgerlore (contact)
Swap categories: Themed  Postcards 
Number of people in swap:39
Location:International
Type:None
Last day to signup/drop:June 1, 2009
Date items must be sent by:June 8, 2009
Number of swap partners:3
Description:

For this swap we will be swapping AD or FREE cards - if you don't know what those are... they are usually the advertising postcards that are on racks in businesses - bars and art galleries, alot of the time. They cover any range of products/businesses, and are used for the sole purpose of advertising. If you don't know where to get them in your area, you can purchase them on ebay (that's where I get mine).

They are fun and interesting to swap because you get to experience interesting graphic design and advertising. I love seeing the different advertising tactics.

You will be sending 1 card each to 3 partners. Please send them naked - that is, stamped and written on - unless your partner specifically states otherwise.

If you have any questions, feel free to message me.

This swap is INTERNATIONAL as postage for postcards isn't ridiculous.

The coolest ones you'll find will be at art galleries, promoting artists and art shows.

I have several that I would love to get rid of, that came in a recent order that I made to a company in Michigan...So I would like to know if there is anyone who would particularly like to have the cards sent in an envelope?????

These are great, and I have some beauties! I do not live in a big city anymore, but whenever I get there I always come home with a stack! Looking forward to it!

I love these cards and try to find as many as possible so i'd be happy to send a bundle to partners in an envelope if they don't need them postage stamped. Mostly free art ones rather than advertising as well.

I don't have any decent ones to send, unfortunately! I'm not even sure where to find them to tell you the truth. If anyone has any of the Absolut cards they'd like to get rid of please take a look at the cards I have for trade because these are something I do collect. Always had to buy them off eBay before though.

@badgerlore Very nice idea!!! I'm in ;-)

hey, i hope you don't mind that i'm new, but this one's a simple enough swap.

do the cards you send to each partner have to be different?

Dibrittain 06/ 1/2009 #

I have tons of these things and I mean tons... if anyone ever needs any... I use to use them for pen paling letters on.

I like the art ads or free cards and drink ads combined with music or/and art on them. And coffee ads, illustrated ads, pets, animals. Not the postcards that are on thin- like paper. I don't like those, I prefer the ones that are like the thickness of postcards that we normally get.
Please NO postcards that have hip hop rappers or hard rock free ads too. I work near art galleries and the museums so I hope to find some good ones to send. I'm looking forward to this fun swap.

I'm hosting a fun art postcard swap so your welcome to join ! "I LOVE ART #3 POSTCARDS" http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/36552 Cheers!

P.s. (pretty and sweet)- I don't mind receiving foreign written ad/free postcards. Just as long it's translated. Cheers!

Meitalt 06/ 2/2009 #

I don't mind getting mine not in an envelope.

poliveira1978 06/ 3/2009 #

I'd like to get mine in an envelope. Use plenty of stamps and ask for a nice cancelation if you can.

Thank you.

tsireldi 06/ 3/2009 #

I love ad/art cards! I don't mind getting mine in an envelope if it has nice stamps on it! But naked is fine too. :)

Sending in an envelope from Germany to overseas is 70% more expensive - I wish we had the US postage prices here! Has anyone got the addresses of the swap partners yet? I haven't... :(

Nordbaer 06/ 5/2009 #

Problem solved :)
