All are swapped, Sorry

Not all artists are as famous as Picasso, Van Gogh or Da Vinci. But many artists have great talent. Mr. Manohar Devadoss is one such amazing artist. The latest news about him can be seen at

India Post, Madurai division recently honoured him by issuing PPCs of his pencil sketches. I have bought a couple of sets with the hope that if it goes well, India post will honour many artists with picture postcards. Offering one set here for exchange.

Madurai is one of the oldest and continuously habited cities.  It is famous for its Meenakshi temple, Jasmine, Idlis, and many more.  It is fondly known as "Non-sleeping city" as most of the street food outlets remain open 24 hours a day.
