French Postcards

Remember the butterfly image from a few days ago? I told you it was from a book of postcards. Here's the back that goes with it. You can see some of the butterflies kind of faded the back of one of the cards.

Vintage French Butterfly Page

This page is from the French Le Papillons En Cartes book. It was a book of postcards for children. Some of the butterflies were left in black and white so you could color them yourself. Each card could be cut out and mailed. I believe this is turn of the century. I left it as is with a little foxing and crispy edges :-)
