546.0. "unusual request...any help???" by FRAIS::DKELLER () Wed Sep 14 1988 13:00

    Shalom to you All,
    
    this is an unusual request: I'm collecting matchboxes from
    all over the world (prefered from the US and Israel) ...
    I want to take the opportunity to ask if there's somebody
    out in Bagel's land who's the same hobby or maybe there's
    someone who can help me to get some more matchboxes for
    my collection (I'm collecting matchboxes from hotels and
    resturants etc...). I would be more than glad to get a
    possitiv answer...if there's somebody out there who'll
    help please send me a mail (FRAIS3::DKELLER)...of course
    I'll pay the mail costs.
    
    Thanks for your help
    
    L'hit

546.1Sounds like an unusual hobbyDPDMAI::POPIKNOMADWed Sep 14 1988 16:255
    Are matchbooks OK. I'd pick them up as I go to places and send them
    to you. However, I haven't seen matchboxes given out in a long
    time(since I don't smoke it may be that I just don't pay enough
    attention to what's available).

546.4Will you be in the States anytime soon?ATSE::KASPERThis space for rantMon Sep 26 1988 16:209
    I used to collect matchbooks, and could send you a big pile of them (if
    I can find them); however, I suspect that sending them through the mail
    (especially internationally) would be a problem.  I know that movers
    didn't want to handle them because of the flammability...

546.5Could be difficultDPDMAI::POPIKNOMADMon Sep 26 1988 19:359
    My wife has a whole bunch that she says I can give you, but as the
    reply in .4 indicates it seems to be a problem to send through the
    mails.
    My local Post Office says I'll get a knock on the door if I try
    it. I'll check about using DEC internal mail but I think the same
    will apply.
    Did you send the transliteration of the greeting to your friend
    yet?

    Hi Beverly,
    
    I will not be home in the States in the next time...I never had
    any problems to mail (national or international) matchbooks...
    so if you don't mind to send me some, my address is in 546.3. If
    you want I'll pay for mailing costs. Hope to hear from you soon.
