Noweb Postcard Gallery

You may notice some of the images don't look so good. On Saturday, December 13, 1997, a careless maintenance man left a valve open on the chillers that cool the building where I was teaching at UVa. One result was that my office ceiling rained coolant. The flood destroyed a number of books and damaged many postcards.

Le Pont Marius Gontard, in Grenoble, from Rafael Laboissiere

Iowa State Memorial Union, from Gary Leavens

Francky Leyn sent this excellent mascot of the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven. I imagine this as a student pouring knowledge into his head. Francky has good taste in stamps, too.
