Polish Postcards

[john.m.gray]

Okay Gang, I was discussing Polish Postcard with some today and remembered
this message I sent to BOC-L awhile back:

>I have two original Polish Postcards.  They are both "Silver Machine"  and
>are hard yellow plastic.  I have numerous, 20 or so, of the new type.
>There are two types,  some are on various colored flimsy plastic sheets in
>a clear plastic bag, with a computer(?) generated design, with HW and the
>song title.  The other type is a actual postcard of various sights in
>Poland with the recording applied over it.  Both of the newer types came
>out over the last three years.  It seems the more that I bought the more
my
>contact in Poland found, I think I was financing an entire record
industry,
>although they were cheap, on the order of 5 or 6 dollars apiece.  I
finally
>gave up, and now I am just searching for the 1970's issues I don't have.

I don't know what drugs I was on the day I wrote it, here is the corrected
version.  The various colored flimsies are from Russia not Poland.  I
bought them from a guy in Poland.  As far as I know the only "new" Polish
Postcards are the on put out on actual picture postcards.  Sorry for the
confusion, I guess I should look at my collection more often.
