Souvenir de Nice (folio of 17+1) – cover
This is a little softcover folio of 17 cards with different scenes of Nice, in many ways similar to the cards we listed just before this: gardens, streets, and so on, all black & white, and we estimate from about 1919 or so. Plus, there is one more totally unrelated card bound in, teaching how to gamble in Monte Carlo (see 20519164BK). The folio is stapled, with left edges of the cards perforated. We honestly do not know whether the original set had just these 18 cards, or more. It looks complete, but no guarantees. Apart from the writing on the front cover, the back cover also has a name and address inked on, many years ago. The individual cards are unwritten. We will call this Grade: 3

Souvenir de Nice (folio of 17+1) – single Monte Carlo card
