  • En Bretagne, Concarneau

    We think this card was mailed in 1958 but the postmark over the stamp is hard to read.  Someone likely in the British Post Office amended the postal code.  There’s a tape remnant.  All in all, an older card, well-loved over many years.  Grade: 4

    En Bretagne, Concarneau
  • Paris, Moulin Rouge at night

    A scene we’ve seen so many times over the years, in films and, now, on a B&W postcard:  mailed in 1959, with two stamps and three readable postmarks you’re free to interpret.  If only we could have been there at the same time the photo was taken.  Grade: 1

  • Paris, aerial view of Eiffel Tower

  • Paris, Sacré-Cœur

    The Basilica of Sacré Coeur de Montmartre (Sacred Heart of Montmartre), says Wikipedia, is a Roman Catholic church and minor basilica in Paris dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. It was formally approved as a national historic monument by the National Commission of Patrimony and Architecture on December 8, 2022.  Sacré-Cœur Basilica is located at the summit of the butte of Montmartre. From its dome two hundred meters above the Seine, the basilica overlooks Paris and its suburbs and is the second most popular tourist destination in the capital after the Eiffel Tower.  (This hardly qualifies it as “minor”.)  Card was mailed in 2024, with postmark and a stamp that looks like a postage meter label with a QR Code.  Grade: 1

  • Paris, Les Champs-Élysées

    Let’s borrow some of Wikipedia’s description:  “The Avenue des Champs-Élysées is in the 8th arrondissement of Paris, 1.9 kilometres (1.2 mi) long and 70 metres (230 ft) wide, running between the Place de la Concorde in the east and the Place Charles de Gaulle in the west, where the Arc de Triomphe is located.  It is known for its  theatres, cafés, and luxury shops; as the finish of the Tour de France cycling race; as well as for its annual Bastille Day military parade. The name is French for the Elysian Fields, the place for dead heroes in Greek mythology. It has been described as the ‘most beautiful avenue in the whole world’.”  Unused card.  Grade: 1

  • Vive la France

    We’re listing this as France although the company that produced it — Paul — started as a bakery there and has expanded to other countries like Romania, where this card was intended for domestic (i.e., Romanian) use.  If this is an ad card, and we think it is, it’s hardly commercial at all.  Unused.  Grade: 1

  • Paris, Arc de Triomphe (TWA)

    Back in the 1950s, TWA and other airlines happily issued postcards highlighting their destinations.  We miss these, but the card survives:  mailed in the USA (not Paris!) with a commemorative Wright Brothers 6-cent airmail stamp and a postmark from an Air Mail Field Office in Cleveland, Ohio.  Bilingual French/English captions.  Grade: 1
