LETTERS, POST CARDS & E-CARDS – COMMUNICATION LANDMARKS - HOSTEL COLONIAL - BUENOS AIRES - ARGENTINA

Long ago, travellers, retailers and soldiers used the postal mail like an essential tool. At the moment e-mail, cellular and satelital phones, teleconferencings and other forms to communicate to us have been it moving.
The post office service was fundamental even in the two World Wars.
The U. S. Mail, managed to transform itself into a powerful and emblematic brand as they are it at the present time Google, Microsoft, Apple, Sun, Paris Hilton and much more.
Who does not hoard a letter?
Formerly they were used like means of expression of the written word, at the present time are true means of visual expression. Each one is a small artwork.

This is my selection


























A great work of compilation, deserves of being spread and being enjoyed.
