Request

To my cover-exchanging friends, please try as much as possible to
(1) WRITE THE ADDRESSES USING YOUR OWN HANDWRITING
as these give a more personal touch to the cover
(2) PLEASE DO NOT USE TAPE OR STICKERS ON THE REVERSE;
the Philippine postal service damages the cover with scribbling that highly devalues the aesthetic value of the cover, which is what I am after
(3) PLEASE TRY TO USE COMPLETE SETS
or at least same themes when sending covers, but it is okay if this is not possible or if this would be expensive, and
(4) PLEASE USE SMALL ENVELOPES,
not too small, but maybe around 4"x6" or something like that; big envelopes are not very attractive unless they have many stamps.
Thank you!

Brasil



This cover has stamps quite similar to those in my previous Brazil post (Brazil 99630328), but there are two stamps of the Zoologicos do Brasil set here that aren't on the other cover, namely the giraffe and the elephant.

Thre trumpet stamps are also here; I wonder why this is the only one that they like to use... what about the others?

The last two stamps on the bottom entitle Costureira show a dressmaker and are part of the PROFISSÕES set.

The postmark tells us that this cover was sent from Rio de Janeiro on 19 Mar 2008.
