Mr. Kong Zhifei shows his collection of Ji'nan postcards in the late Qing Dynasty. This newspaper reporter Guo Xuejun Intern Zhao Jie by the Baotu Spring Park Management Office jointly sponsored by the "old Ji'nan and old house" picture exhibition in 2013 on New Year's day after the news report, has been a lot of public attention. Mr. Kong Zhifei, the collector of Ji'nan postcard, began collecting postcards in the 90s of last century. There are four hundred or five hundred old postcards about Ji'nan. Kong Zhifei decided to take his collection of rare old Ji'nan postcards out of the exhibition after seeing the news of the photo exhibition of "old Ji'nan and old house" picture exhibition. After the founding of the founding of the founding of Ji'nan, he basically collected the whole of the 50s Ji'nan scenery of the last century to take out the 13 morning exhibition, the first of Mr. Kong Zhifei's home, the reporter saw a row of high 2 meters high cabinet in the living room. "It's not my clothes, it's my collection postcard!" Mr. Kong Zhifei said as he opened the cabinet door. It was divided into five layers, and all the clapboards on each floor were full of postcards. Due to overburden, the middle of the partition is depressed down.
"because the postcards are too heavy and too heavy, the cupboards are crushed." Kong Zhifei carefully picked up 3 thick collectors from the partition board to show reporters that he had collected postcards from the 90s of last century, and has collected nearly ten thousand postcards all over the country.
"when I was in middle school, I often read letters to my neighbors, and I saw the stamps on them were beautiful, and I fell in love with stamp collecting. The limit postcard is one kind of stamp collecting, I passed the limit Postcard collection, then turned interest gradually to the collection postcard. Kong Zhifei said he was 62 years old. After retiring almost all his time and energy had been put on the collection of precious postcards. Many people were "hiding in Tibet", but he only did not sell it. "
" once, he was going to sell a postcard, and I told him that if you had sold the postcard no longer, he would have dismissed the idea. " Liu Yumei, Kong Zhifei's wife, said she was very supportive of her partner's hobby. There were too many postcards in the house, and she could not hold them in the cupboard. She also helped her wife to think of the way, and finally put the postcards under the bed.
"I had a wide range of postcards in the past, and the scenery postcards all over the country were collected, and then the scope was gradually reduced to the province. I almost all collected Ji'nan postcards in every period after the founding of the people's Republic of China!" Kong Zhifei said, the exhibition is a good opportunity for the Tibetan friends to exchange, and he intends to treasure himself. A set of postcards of the 50s of last century was provided for exhibitions. "This is the earliest Ji'nan Postcard found in the Philatelic circle after the founding of the people's Republic of China. It may also be the only Postcard released in the 50s of last century." The old Ji'nan Postcard before the founding of the people's Republic of China, he had four hundred or five hundred old postcards of 1912 old postcards not yet together. "Now my greatest interest is to collect old postcards about Ji'nan, and four hundred or five hundred old Ji'nan postcards before the founding of the people's Republic." My first Postcard before the founding of new China was scamper from Zhongshan Park. Now, some of my collections are taken from websites both at home and abroad. Some collections were discovered by Tibetan friends in Beijing and Shanghai. Kong Zhifei said he would go to Zhongshan Park every Saturday to see if there are any postcards worth collecting.
"in addition to the postcards of the 50s of last century, I can also select a group of rare postcards from the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China. You look at this old postcard in the end of the Qing Dynasty, the Baotu Spring is written as "baozi spring", the old building next to the Baotu Spring is the main hall of the LV zzu temple, and now it has been renamed as' Yuen yuan Hall '. Mr. Kong Zhifei said that this postcard was issued by the Japanese, and is one of the earliest photos of Lu Zu temple and Baotu Spring.
"let's take a look at the postcard on the the Yellow River bridge of Jin Pu railway." It was taken by me last year from a foreign website. Above is the moment when the railway bridge is closing. This picture is very rare and rare! "Kong Zhifei said happily, not long ago, Fischer's granddaughter, the designer of the old train station of Ji'nan, brought a historical photo of the old Ji'nan railway station a hundred years ago, causing a lot of attention from Ji'nan citizens. The railway bridge and Ji'nan old railway station were built in the same year, so the postcard was of great historic value. It clearly marked the construction time and construction unit of the railway bridge, and it was close to the dragon in October 2, 1912.
"to let more people share my valuable old Ji'nan postcard. Another Tibetan friend and I are preparing to publish the "San Shui saints" in old postcards. Kong Zhifei said that at present, they have been preparing the book for over a year, and will soon be published. He hopes that more people will learn about the history of Shandong and Ji'nan through these old postcards.
