2006-10-11 15:59




Our very own postcard collector Jac Verheul has broken yet another limit. 1400 petanque postcards are now online here at petanque.org!

If you spend 10 seconds on each of our postcards it will take you close to 4 hours to look at them all! Or do one every day, and finish in about 4 years! We have reached 1400 postcards online.

Jac Verheul is the man behind our postcard-collection. He has been collection postcards related to petanque for more years than most of you have been playing petanque.

Every holliday he goes off to France to dive into stores selling old books and postcards, and he has generously shared his entire collection of postcards with the world here at petanque.org.

Not only do we thank Jac Verheul for this magnificent collection, but we also extend our heartily thanks to Mrs. Verheul. What she does when Jac is in inside all the bookstores we have no idea, but without her generosity the collection would we a lot smaller.
