This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is 5005-p_0001.jpgPOSTCARD 2   (SOLD)

These vintage real photo postcards feature a pretty young woman wearing either a bathing suit or lingerie. I can’t distinguish between the two types of clothing. Perhaps I need to enroll in a class at Victoria’s Secret University to enhance my knowledge about such things. These are risque images for their era. The postcards were published in France by PC Paris, as part of a series (no. 2122). The P. C. logo is an abbreviation for Papeteries de Levallois-Clichy. The firm published a variety of real photo postcard topics including portraits of women, nudes, views, and holiday cards. The company was active in the 1920’s.                           (POSTCARD 1 : SOLD)           (POSTCARD 2 : SOLD)
