The card is the latest release of "The Year of The Rooster" 2017 by Hong Kong Postal Service and is one of a series of New Year Postal cards of The Zodiac Animals... it has perforated edges so it can be opened to reveal the message inside.. I was reluctant to do this as it is such a lovely card but also wanted to read my friends message.
