This superb couples romance postcard was published by Rotophot of Berlin sometime between 1906 and 1908. We know this because the printer was a member of P.R.A. “Verein Photographischer Reproduktions-Anstalten GmbH" a convention, or cartel, whose members were concerned with maintaining costs in the silver bromide photo card industry. The convention was born in '06, died in '08, and so when we find its logo as we do here, in the stamp box on the obverse of our card, it gives us a handy-dandy means of dating the card!

The coloring on this card is amazing. Check out the Art Nouveau (Jugendstil) design on the coverlet draped over the divan, and the condition is almost perfect.

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.
