Such a coy flapper! Lovely lingerie. Very cute boudoir image by J. Mandel, published by A. Noyer in the 1920s.
From photo-image postcards of artwork shown in the Salon de Paris, gorgeous nudes by J. Mandel and other fine photographers, to light-hearted, pochoir decorated, couples romance cards, A. Noyer was one of the most prolific producers of fine quality, silver bromide photo postcards produced in France in the 1920s. Always one of our favorites.
When, years ago, we began dealing in vintage French postcards, the most commonly available information was that the A in A. Noyer stood for Alfred. Lately, it's becoming more common to see him referred to as Armand. Because this information comes to us often from collector and dealer sites in France, and because Monsieur Noyer was, after all, French (at least that seems most likely), we're inclined to think Armand is probably correct. On the other hand, not all French sources seem to agree on this at the present time, so until we come across some real evidence in the form of his full name appearing on some verifiable printed matter of the period, we're going avoid any debate and stick with just plain old A. Noyer :)
