cover from the USA

On 31st May I got not only three postcards but also a cover from the USA.

The cover was sent in a glassine envelope. 

The postmark here celebrates the Norwegian National Day known as Constitution Day. The day is also known as Syttende Mai, meaning 17th May, however the postmark dates two days earlier than the official date. The location of the postmark is Stoughton, a town in Wisconsin known for its Norwegian heritage.

Another piece of European heritage is shown on the card inside. Did you know that Madrid is actually a village and artists' community in New Mexico? And I thought it would be the capital of Spain.


Thank You very much Sam-Quito!
