If there is one thing we enjoy even more than finding a new image of our very favorite nude "French" postcard model, it is finding an image of her fully clothed! How about a collection composed entirely of "un" nude postcards, made up of fully dressed "French" postcard models! What fun!
We haven't been able to find any history on this lush beauty, who always seemed to be having such a good time on her photo shoots. On one website, it was suggested that her name was Brianna, but we haven't found that name anywhere else. We also found one of those wonderful Walery images of a Casino de Paris Dancer named Mlle. Paslowski, who closely resembled her, but a good customer of ours ran across a series of nude postcards, each with a different model pictured, and with a different name in the bottom left corner of of the cards' backsides. On the back of our model's card was the name "Mireille," or miracle. .So that's the name we've settled on til we know more.
Incidentally, in those days, models, dancers, and performers of all kinds, frequently changed their names, testing new ones out in the hopes of finding one that would resonate with the audience and give their career that important boost!
While Mlle Mireille may be fully dressed, her eyes still sizzle.You can put her into the girl next door's dress, and hand her a bouquet of flowers, but her eyes are still those of a leopard woman in "Cat People" :)
We include a link below, to one of her nude images for sale elsewhere in our shop.

Nice condition on this interesting card, but someone put a tiny blue beauty mark on her face.
