The mission of our club is to foster and promote postcard collecting in the Greater San Francisco Bay Area and the World. To achieve this goal: We hold monthly meetings at which our members and visitors can meet other collectors, find postcards, and learn more about collecting postcards; publish a monthly newsletter to share information and a club roster to help our members contact each other about postcards and their particular collecting interests; We disseminate news about post card shows and other relevant events; We encourage, through our meetings, programs, newsletter, web site and study committees, continuing research and education on the history of postcard publishing and collecting; support and promote honesty and ethics on the part of all those involved in postcard collecting.
