Postcards I have received from 2013 to 2018 primarily through Postcrossing and Swap-bot although there are some postcards here that are from other sources.

Carp postcard from Japan
I mustconfess that this postcard has puzzled me to
some extent.I can see a carp at the
bottom of the card and I understand that in Japan, the carp symbolises a lot of
good things among them longevity, fortune, etc.So what is this card about?A general “Good Luck” card?Maybe someone with more information (or
someone from Japan) would be able to shed some light on this card.
