Etymology

The concept of sending postcards can be traced back to the mid-19th century when postal services became more accessible to the general public. The first postcard was sent in Austria in 1869, and the popularity of sending and collecting postcards grew rapidly. Postcards have been used for communication, travel souvenirs, and as a form of art. Today, postcards continue to be a popular way to send greetings and share experiences with others.
