Romanian 1970s Christmas postcards

Picked up these superb and wonderfully Eastern Bloc Christmas postcards in Romania a while back, all dating back to the 1970s.

This festive Brutalist block one is particularly spectacular

A sweet 70s look to these characters below, quite like this 1970’s Czech collage I found a while back.  I like the slightly flared trousers and big heels.

 

All picked up at an antique market in Cluj-Napoca, an attractive university town in Transylvania.  A few more posts on my travels in Romania and Hungary on oddball vintage Romanian ceramics and here on Hungarian book covers and Romanian rural interiors

More curious vintage festive posts in our archive – Christmas postcards from the Soviet Union, surreal baby fishing Christmas postcards from 1905 and New Year pig riding postcards from Czech republic in 1915.

Seasons Greetings from Kuriosas! Thanks for reading and see you in 2019!
