hama7, may I ask how you usually come across these wonderful resources? I mean, they're usually ephemera, so do you search stuff in Google like “ephemera thailand”, say, or do you come across the links in weblogs? I'm genuinely curious, and I wonder where the majority of the links spring from.

On a similar theme: The Art of the Japanese Postcard, an exhibition currently running at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts. The Art Nouveau and Art Deco cards are particularly striking.
