I wonder if stamp collectors also like to collect Postcards that feature stamps?
I personally don't-- I have a few postcards in my stamp collection because the stamps on them were used at a time or place that's relevant to my collection but I don't have them "because they are post cards."
Similarly, my wife collects postcards, but the stamps on used ones are only relevant to her in the sense that they provide a date/place of usage, not because they are stamps.

I imagine "souvenir postcards" like these are a collectible onto themselves... I suppose they might be interesting to a "general" stamp collector. They are certainly quite colourful and interesting. Personally, not really my bag as they are contrived, rather than something that happened as a natural carrying of the post. But that's just me.
