WELCOME TO THE CAPITAL OF TEXAS POSTCARD CLUB! The Capital of Texas Postcard Club was organized in the early 1990s. The Club meets monthly from September to May, usually on the second Wednesday evening of each month from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m. (see link below to view a map showing our meeting location). In June we normally have an ice cream social on a weekend instead of our monthly meeting. The Club does not meet in July and August when we are on summer break. A CLUB-SPONSORED ONE-DAY POSTCARD SHOW AND SALE WILL BE HELD ON SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 28th, 2013 (see below and our Show Page in the menu to the left for more information). |

Our monthly meetings are held at the Senior Activity Center, 2874 Shoal Crest Ave. near 29th and Lamar in Austin. Enter the parking lot from Shoal Crest Ave., which parallels North Lamar one block to the east - look for a small sign that says "SENIOR CENTER". We meet in the room at the south end of the building - enter through the main entrance, take a left and go all the way to the end of the hallway. (See link below) Don't let the "Senior Activity Center" scare you off, not all of us are "seniors", all ages are welcome! Our club is recreational for the most part, but we do invite dealers to our meetings who provide access to postcards; we share our collections and interests and, best of all, we make new friends while we exchange postcards, ideas and information. |
Our next Club Meeting will be our Christmas/Holiday Party to be held on Wednesday, December 11th, 2013, 7:00- 9:00 PM at our regulare meeting location. At all of our Club events, you are invited to bring along any postcards that you would like to sell, trade, or show-and-tell! Or just come and browse through what others have brought! Did you know that the Capital of Texas Postcard Club has a Library? Here are a group of books just donated to the Club Library by Club member Carlene Sanders - thanks so much, Carlene! If you are looking for information about almost any aspect of postcard collecting, our Library likely has something to meet your needs. Contact our Librarian, Bill Bassett, at ctxpc@ctxpc.org if you would like to know more about the holdings of the Capital of Texas Postcard Club Library.

If you have a collecting interest you would like to share with the group at a future meeting, please let us know and we will schedule you in! If you are a POSTCARD DEALER that will be in the Austin area and would like to sell postcards at one of our meetings, we would love to have you!
