Postcard Boat
What are the categories that separate you from postcards?
My boyfriend and I are indexing our postcard collection ... (4000 postcards). And we are at a point in our index that we want their catalog by subject. However, when we look, we're too involved. So ... I'm looking for some general ideas for categories. Ex Lighthouses, boats and buildings. Thank you
As you said, Lighthouses Boat Beach Buildings scenes geographic area (Washington DC, for example) amusement parks (Disneyland, for example) Pets / Animals Kids / those babies (Men, Women, Old) Comics but some can accommodate more than one category ... lighthouses and beach scene .... What then? Decide that if she has a light in it then it goes in this category, if it has a boat, it goes in boats if it's just a beach scene with waves and palms, then it's just a beach "scene"
