On Wednesday I got three postcards from Germany.
One of the cards shows Vicky the Viking. Vicky the Viking is the son of Halvar, chief of the Viking village of Flake and unlike his village fellows Vicky is blessed with a sharp and imaginative mind which helps him and his fellow Vikings out of many tight situations. Originally created by Swedish author Runer Jonsson and known as Vicke in Swedish and Wickie in German, he appeared in seven books published between 1963 and 1994. His fame however he owes more to the German-Austrian-Japanese TV show Wickie und die starken Männer, which first aired in 1974.
I bought this postcard on Redbubble and sent it myself with the new Vicky stamp issued on 3rd December. I really like this stamp.
