The New Zealand Postcard Society is committed to growing the knowledge base of our early postcard photographers and publishers. 

Many of our members undertake their own private deltiology study out of personal interest and this accumulated research material currently forms much of the content of the Postcard Pillar magazine as well as the content of postcard lists held on this web site. We encourage you to also contribute to this archive if you can by sending us your own list or research on your area of collecting interest. You can use the link provided to do this.

Expanding the content of the Society's postcard lists will go a long way towards developing a broader understanding of the images captured, and the postcards published by our early postcard photographers and publishers.
