FEPA NEWS 45 43 FEPA Exhibiting (Right) Vignette of the letterhead of the Max Bernhardt printing works, publishers of many postcards of Bojano- wo and Schmückert (Bojanowo’s name during the Second World War). (Left) The reverse of the photograph from the atelier of the publisher of the Bojanowo postcard on the left is circled in red. (Right). The stamp on the reverse of the post- card showing the pharmacy is shown in red. (Right). Dashed in red is an excerpt from the message on the reverse of a postcard from Pozna ń which contains information about the death of restaurateur Dehnel’s daughter. I’m including a piece of correspondence on one of the pages of the exhibit, relating to the people whose objects are depicted on the postcard below. The information presented above is an asset - in my case I ‘acquired’ the originals – that enriches the content of the exhibit’s narrative. Such additions also document the knowledge and personal research of the author of the exhibit. In my opinion this enhances the exhibit’s visual impression as this information has a direct reference to the postcards in it. I am curious to hear the opinions of philatelists who undertake exhibit building in the postcard class on the issues raised above and can be contacted at witold. mikolajczyk@gmail.com.
