Thank you so much for offering postcards from the south pole. I missed last years and I have been waiting for almost a year to be able to try and get one. Best Christmas gift ever!

This is a wonderful opportunity for life-long postcard collectors, teachers, students, etc., to receive a card from such a unique place.
I have been a collector of cards for 67 years! I send and receive cards from all over the world through Postcrossing.com and other similar sites. To receive a card from the South Pole would be so amazing!!

Thank you for this opportunity!

Hi Kathy, so happy to hear you're excited for the post card. However, it may be a belated Christmas card...the mail from the South Pole can take a few weeks, so expect it to be delivered sometime in mid-January!
