# The Postal Directorate Building, Novi Sad

The card itself is captioned in Serbian, Novi Sad, Palata Direkcije Pošta, the Post Office Directorate Palace, while the city is named in Hungarian as Újvidék on cards of the same months; the card's May 1941 date falls only weeks after the Hungarian occupation that April, so this Yugoslav-era Serbian card was evidently still being used just after the change of administration, the mirror image of the Hungarian-to-Serbian overprints of 1918. A biplane flies over the building, with a tram and pedestrians in the street below and flowerbeds planted along the fence.
