General Gouraud (France)

General Gouraud (France)

Henri Joseph Eugène Gouraud was a French general, best known for his leadership of the French Fourth Army at the end of the First World War.  This card, not postally used, was written in 1920 with a florid message more or less covering the reverse, with some foxing on both sides.  We note the (relatively) unusual use of Arabic on the card, unless it was also meant for sale in Syria.  We’re not certain about that.  Grade: 4
