advertising........


a new stamp sheet will be issued after one week..


our cards with new permanent serial stamps...


our ancient townhall, nowadays town museum..

these are normal white mulberries! these you can buy here, and I remember the olden times when the time of mulberries-harvest arrived and in the large garden beside the tabriz university they met long banks and tables and ppl could sit there and eat the fresh mulberries - just from the trees on the plates...... really nice place!!!!

then there are also normal black mulberries, we have a tree in our garden at home! they are part of my well known 3-fruit-marmelade of sour cherries, black mulberries and redcurrants!! and besides the large black king's mulberries!! we have in our garden outside of tabriz..
