  • Tananarive, l’Escalier d’Ambondrona

    A sentimental favourite, because we visited this place in 1985 and found these stairs to be almost impossibly exotic. Cards don’t sell on sentiment, though. It’s in great condition on front but aging on reverse. Never mailed. Grade: 2

  • Nosy Vorona – Nosy Be

    Dating from the late 1980s, this Bernard Serre card was never mailed and is aging significantly on both front and (even more so) the back. There seem to have been no imported cards in Madagascar at that time. Grade: 3
