We've always been fond of this particular model. We've never been certain of her name and we've known nothing of her history, except that she was a very popular model in the 1910s and 20s, probably well into the 30s, too. We call her Mireille because a good customer of ours told us the name was printed on the back of one of her cards in a series wherein other models' names were also printed on the back-sides. This is nothing like evidence, but we'll call her Mireille until we know better.
Here we have one of five of her postcards we recently acquired out of a single series. Pretty neat! Most series of this kind were limited to six images, so this one is very close to completion.
This card has some minor chipping along the top edge and is priced accordingly.
Please examine our high res scans for detail.
The item you are considering for purchase is, unless otherwise noted, a vintage postcard of approximately 5 and 1/2, by 3 and 1/2 inches. Postage is for fully-insured, first class shipping in a secure photo mailer (to avoid any damage to your purchase in the mails), and we happily combine shipping on all paper goods. If you purchase two cards, we will not charge for postage on the second card, and when you purchase three or more cards from us at the same time, your shipping will be entirely free, except for international orders which, because of increases in international shipping rates will still be charged one card's shipping fees on orders of three or more. We do not charge for insurance or shipping materials, and as of the date of this listing are still charging below our overall cost on shipping.
