Charles Collas and Company (et Cie) of Cognac was one of those postcard printers of the late nineteenth, early twentieth, centuries that began as a producer of printed matter other than postcards, but that, when the postcard boom occurred just after the turn of the century, jumped on that bandwagon and excelled at the craft. Based in Cognac, they originally printed lots and lots of decorative labels for the bottles of...you guessed it...cognac :).
We don't know if they ever did much in the way of silver-bromide photographic printing, or not. Most of their cards we find were very nicely done offset press prints, like this one, one of our favorite series of theirs! Minor wear to edges and corners.

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 refund the 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 shipping materials, and as of the date of this listing are still charging below our overall cost on shipping.
