Maxicards and FDCs (First Day Covers!)

Hey, I wanted to do a redo of my other maxicard explanation video because I got some American FDCs and thought those might be clearer, especially for those of us from the good ol' US of A. Ever found yourself wondering what is a first day cover? Or maybe just what is a maxicard? Look no further! The United States doesn't issue Maxi Cards, so it can be confusing the first time you encounter these much-loved cards on someone's swap or wishlist. Likewise, it can also be confusing to encounter First Day of Issue Covers. In this video, I explain briefly what those are and show off a few examples. :) My Twitter: https://twitter.com/SnailMailBritt My Insta: https://www.instagram.com/snailmail.brittany/ My Email: [email protected] More information: FIP Maximaphily Commission http://www.maximaphily.info/index.html Maximum Card @ Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_card The Wonderful World of Maximum Cards By Giorgio Migliavacca http://www.virginstamps.com/world_maximum_cards_maximaphily_cartoline_maximum.html Postcard formats: Maxicards @ Postcrossing https://www.postcrossing.com/blog/2012/03/19/postcard-formats-maxicards American First Day Cover Society "A Short Course on First Day Covers" http://www.afdcs.org/fdccourse.html First Day of Issue @ Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_day_of_issue
