These elegant postcards have a cloth binding (like a journal). The paper stock is thick and matte. I feel so grown up having this in my stationary collection :) Just looking at them makes me feel giddy. They're too pretty to tear out. I am very satisfied.

UPDATE: I tore some out to use for my upcoming trip to Japan and was disappointed to discover that the binding leaves a pink residue on the postcard's edge that is very hard to peel off. Ive had to use a paper cutter to trim it. Not a huge deal but a nuisance nonetheless.

Wow...I have to agree with the last reviewer! These cards are simply lovely! I'm a postcard collector/swapper who regularly sends and receives postcards from all over the world. I bought this set to add to my "to send" collection, but I'm afraid most of these are going to wind up in MY collection instead! Very beautiful cards...you will not be disappointed.

3.5 stars. I agree, the graphics are beautiful, but I am disappointed that these postcards can't be mailed in the US at the postcard rate--they are too big and therefore must be sent first class. I would have liked to know that before buying them, as I really did want to take advantage of cheaper postal rates and send them as postcards. If you want to buy them solely for your own collection you will probably not be disappointed.
