Lovely Giant Panda maximum card maxicard #2. Created only a few zazzle customized postage personalized stamps



"- Condition: circulated, postmarked in Washington, D.C., near the Zoo; large size stamp (more expensive to produce)!  2.5x1.5 inches (63x38 mm); 4.5x6 inches (107x152 mm) postcard. The automated spray-on postmark is smeared because the postcard is glossy and the postal manager refused to handcancel it for me, without even seeing or knowing that it's a Zazzle stamp. "I ain't gonna do no handcanceling!" [whatsoever, for any mailpiece].
- Year: 2008 postmark; I have designed this 2007 stamp.
- Catalog value: Only 20 stamps created; 3 (at least) I keep, 17 (at most) still available. This denomination is no longer available for future orders, as the current first class rate is 44 cents.
So, nobody else in the world can offer this item, freestyle maximum card with giant panda customized postage, exactly as shown.

The Zazzle customized postage (personalized stamps, personalised stamps) are perfectly valid for postage, as demonstrated by this circulated item."



In conclusion, this is and will remain a unique item in the world in this exact configuration. No additional copies.

Israel maximum card/ maxicard/ carte maximum: ibex goat from Ein Gedi nature reserve on the Dead Sea coast







"In the summer of 2005, nearly two-thirds of the oasis burned to the ground after a tourist dropped a lit cigarette onto the park grounds."
While most everybody takes a holistic approach to preservation of the whole oasis, that tourist took an assholistic approach. What a butt-head...

BOARD OF DIRECTORS, CEOs, ASSes - I could make this into dorincard kit#3.





This is a postcard available commercially, as you can see from the backside.
It's supposed to be a visual metaphor, is it not?
Leaders of all sorts come in all types, colors and values. Some are good, some are bad.
Your preferred negative example of a leader might deserve an AVATAR like an ass (or mule?) from the postcard.

Are those entities in the above image...asses (donkeys)? Mules? Horses? Zebras?
Don't ass-ume that you can horse around, walk on zebras and kick ass - it may be hazardous.
"Mules are generally less tolerant towards dogs than horses are.[citation needed] They are also capable of striking out with any of their hooves in any direction, even sideways if needed.[citation needed]



Mules exhibit a higher cognitive intelligence than their parent species - horses and donkeys. This is believed to be the result of hybrid vigour, similar to how mules acquire greater height and endurance than either parent. [8]
Mules are highly intelligent. They tend to be curious by nature. A mule generally will not let the rider put it in harm's way. However, the stereotype of the mule as being stubborn is somewhat unfair and inaccurate."


I hope you know an ass when you see it. I mean a donkey.
But do you know the difference between all of them, especially between a mule and a hinny?
[Can't you go to wikipedia.org by yourself? Why am I doing this?]

"Dorincard: Blogger Dorin C is a stamp and postcard fanatic, and luckily he's more than pleased to write prolifically and charmingly about his obsession. He has a particular bent for stamps with wild mammals on them, but his blog demonstrates an affinity for stamps of all forms and backgrounds, as long as they offer a special narrative that's worth sharing with his readers.

    Postcards and stamps, mainly featuring mammals and birds but Dorincard also has other creations
    and interests he likes to share.
    His enthusiasm for Maximum cards (a postcard and a similar themed stamps sent through the
    postal system) shines through.
    He shows how he gets the right card, stamp and postmark together.
    Visiting his site you will also learn things about the natural world told with a dry sense of humour,
    possibly with a play on words, and a unique style of headings.
    Topical and informative both for the enthusiast and casual visitor.
