FROM: Ravenna - Corso Garibaldi - Mr. Luigi Rigotto of "Globus" PC- Exchange Society member (VERY EARLY): 193 - sent a pc to:
Germany
He was ALSO an Exchange-Clubmemer in “KOSMOPOLIT” + WEKO, NR. 8374 + B.C.C: 1962, j 431 + I.A.E.O: 1186 + also still another PC - Exchange Club Society named: U.F.C.P. COLONIA 270, a.s.o.!!!
Mr.. LUIGI RIGOTTI must have had an enormous large amassment of PICTURE POST - CARDS FROM ALL OVER OUR TELLUS (Globe) I WONDER HOW MANY 100.000-s THOUSAND PC'S HE FINALLY ENDED UP WITH?!
MAYBE HIS WIFE MADE IM MOVE INTO THEIR GARAGE :-)
ALL these POST CARD COLLECTORS exchanged one card against another single POST CARD.
Very often across all continents and countries !!
No money involved!

Picture Postcard Exchange Societies where started: Weltverband «KOSMOPOLIT» was THE VERY first in 1897(!) Herr Claus-Torsten Schmidt wrote a fantastic book in 1983 with 351(!) most interesting pages in (German) Afterwards 100’s of similar PostCard Exchange Clubs followed suit like «Globus» / «Danach folgten Hunderte ähnlicher PostCard Exchange Clubs“ wie «Globus» -
Please do look at the Internet at the mentioned names! Hobbyjobby is now putting for sale vast numbers of such „Swap“-cards from many European/Wideworld countries.
The exchangers put the stamps on the PICTURESIDE thus enabling to leave the card untouched in their magnificent Albums. Showing simultaneously both the front of the pc. + the Stamp telling from which country + the Cancellation of the Place/Town and Date WHEN the Postcard was sent.
Please look at my cards front & backsides + the various Club-labels or Logos often including the senders name, adress and their Clubname + Registration-number!
Dear Ansichtskarten Protector/Preserver – Sehen Sie sich die Klebeetiketten, Logos und privaten Stempel der Mitglieder der Tauschverbände an, die sie auf der RÜCKSEITE ihrer Tauschpostkarten verwendet haben -
