I´m 37 years old and I´m from the Czech Republic.
I work for the Centrin company in Zruč nad Sázavou. It´s old people´s home.
When I have some free days, so I can to devote my interestes and activities. There´s important say, that I´m mainly collector of matchboxes and matchbooks. I like different old wooden boxes from the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Czechoslovakia, Czech rep. My collection contains especially Czechoslovak boxes from periods 1918 - 1945 and 1945 - 58 for home trade and export. Yes, I like different antique matchboxes from foreign countries as e.g. Austria, France, Germany, Italy, Belgium, Sweden, Japan, USA, India etc.
My other hobbies are: Drawing of portraits and writing articles about matches to magazines, newspapers. I´m a member of Czech Philumenist Union (ČFS). I´m very happy, that I can be just now in cooperation in excellent Portuguese on-line exhibition. You can see my own autor´s album with pocket (2018 - present) and friendly matchboxes created from my drawing.
Kind wishes for friends-collectors to Portugal.
