Where can you buy postcards with CT landmarks?

One of the best places I have found that sell postcards are Hallmark stores. Not sure where you are located, but do know there is a store in Seymour, and one in Bristol that have a decent collection. If you are driving on I-95, the rest stops do have some - but not a large amount - and many times more for Massachuesttes and New York. Another place to might be the Mystic area. I haven't been there in a while - but as it is a large tourist spot - I am sure there must be some. (if not the stores on the main street than the seaport itself)
