Description
To mark the 150th anniversary of the postcard in France, La Poste is reissuing 10 cards illustrating the golden age of the postcard (i.e. up to the 1920s) with a stamp on the reverse that was in use at the time of their first issue, making them ready to mail and travel as pre-stamped cards at the international rate. The variety of postcards produced in the early years of the 20th century led publishers to come up with a thousand and one techniques and features. In addition to glued objects, celluloid and cork cards, certain parts of the card were also embossed. The golden age of embossed postcards was generally between 1900 and 1920.
