Croatian School Museum’s Collection of Postcards and Pictorials

Elizabeta Serdar ; Hrvatski školski muzej, Zagreb, Hrvatska

Sažetak

Until 2011, the Collection of Postcards and Pictorials had been part of the Photograph Collection. As the number of postcards donated or repurchased after the establishment of the permanent exhibition increased, it was proposed to separate it. The Collection presently comprises around 2000 objects. The primary collection criterion was the motif of and association with schooling, although many of them have high artistic value. They mostly represent school buildings or groups of students and teachers, whereas a specific group of letter cards and postcards features the Croatian Teachers’ Home building, which houses the Museum. Postcards became increasingly popular among the public, which is why many museums began to focus on such materials and many cities decided to present themselves by publishing collected postcards. In our museum, they are processed by software, preventively protected and safeguarded in appropriate controlled micro-climatic conditions.
