FLAME ON

 











I have a thing for the Olympic Games, both ancient and modern. I love the dream, I love the reality; I love the variety and the diversity. I love the highs and lows, the humanity, the pomp and the pageantry. 

I also collect 'interesting' postcards (it's all subjective), so these, which feature aspects of the Olympic Flame ceremony, were irresistible. They were also quite cheap,  considering that they look to be about 2,500 years old.
