Okinawa, Goya (Bitter Melon)

Okinawa, Goya (Bitter Melon)

Still in the original packaging, this “postcard” is made from a flexible PVC material, not paper.  On the reverse, it’s printed (into the PVC) as one might design the address section of a normal card.  And just what does this represent?  Not a forested island, like it looks, but actually the goya bitter gourd (bitter melon), Momordica charantia, a vegetable popular in Okinawa.  A novelty item and quirky postcard.  Unused, distinctive, Grade: 1
