PLK and alike card scans
Back in the days swappers used to have PLK addresses in Germany, P.O. Box and alike in other countries.
Usually when signing up for one of the addresses one was handed a card to show when picking up sendings. Please post any scans of such cards you still may find :) |

PO boxes in The Netherlands were(are) physical lockers, for which keys are handed over to whoever rents them. No identifaction was needed when applying for them, just a decent amount of deposot money (which you got back when handing over the keys again)
So no cards in .nl |

Here's a German PLK scan, along with a bit of background info and literature: http://gotpapers.untergrund.net/?p=849 |

"According to his memories, the original PLK was about credit card size, and not 12 x 17 cm as the scan implies."
as said on IRC, thats wrong - its about A7, much bigger than a credit card.

Groepaz: Uhm, the reference here is to Bodo, not to Gangsterkater (whoever that is). The only Gangsterkater reference in the article is on collecting PLK mail in groups. |

And thanks for the original size reference, I will amend the metadata sheet accordingly. |

Groepaz: Yes I do list him, but, as I said, only for one particular fact. See the footnote-reference-links.
A new scan of a PLK would be highly appreciated, and I'm looking forward to yours! |

Pls do so - for what reasons? Nostalgia and all - then again we still need secure addresses for carding expensive stuff to :)
Msg me if you need a target to send scans to :) |
