French Vintage Postcards



Old postcards, have alot to say. The images, with their stamps, postmarks, and handwriting, are a package deal! At the flea markets in France you can find stacks of postcards in organized piles. With labels such as: PARIS, COLLECTOR STAMPS, CHILDREN, ROMANCE, CHATEAUX...there is always a line of people shuffling through them.
The postcard bug finally bite me, and of course I do not stand in line! No, you can find me digging through old suitcases and boxes of junk, hoping to find someone's collection of forgotten souvenirs!
I love collecting French vintage postcards ones with Paris scenes, or children, or those postcards that are empty on the backside waiting for me to tag them with my memoires!
Tongue in Cheek Postcards (I told you I was going to sale my papers!!)

Yes! Old French postcards. I can't wait for my order to arrive. So glad you've opened your shop.

I love postcards especially if they're not the typical ones with the statue of liberty or the Empire state building, for me to buy them they have to be unique. The ones here are incredible, do they sell online?
