Organisers said they would apply to the Russian and Guinness book of records with the postcard, which measures 250.3 metres (820 feet) by 1.6 metres (5 feet) and weighs 119.8 kilograms (264 pounds).

The postcard was made to mark the 114th anniversary of Novosibirsk. On June 24, it was placed in Novosibirsk's central square so that anyone could leave greetings for the city. It was then stamped and sent to the addressee – the Siberian postal museum.

In June 2005, a similar project was carried out in St. Petersburg where a 10 metre by 15 metre love letter was prepared.
