This vintage real photo postcard features a studio portrait of a young woman dressed in a gypsy costume. She is wearing two necklaces and a number of bracelets. Note her head scarf and fabric belt. The stamp box on this postcard reveals that it was produced by K Ltd. which operated between 1918 and 1936. There is a dated inscription on the reverse of the card. This postcard is dated 1922. (SOLD)
The inscription (in French) is “Souvenir et baisers de la cousinette” which means “Remembrance and Kisses from the Cousin”
Thanks for the translation. The young lady’s message makes me think of the term “kissing cousins”. In a way, sending this postcard with it’s photo and sweet words, is a predecessor to today’s text messaging.
