Argenton, right in the heart of France, is a small town we didn’t know, so when we went to Wikipedia it described how things were not so far from when this unused, aged postcard was made:  “The Encyclopædia Britannica Eleventh Edition (1911) described the city: ‘The river is crossed by two bridges, and its banks are bordered by picturesque old houses. There are numerous tanneries, and the manufacture of boots, shoes and linen goods is carried on’. Since then, one of the riverside mills has been converted into the ‘Museum of the Shirt and Masculine Elegance’.”  That alone made the search worthwhile!  Grade: 1
