A little bit, I guess. Admittedly, it's a wee bit morbid. Just a tiny bit. But that's just one subtheme. I do collect other postcard topics...

Thread resurrection, simply because I love gazing at this collection.
I don't know about THE coolest - one of our members (@AncientJoe) has one that I think is just as cool, and also related to a historical tragedy -...
