    Description

    3 3/8” tall, 2 1/2” wide, 1/4” thick
    What an interesting postcard.  The hand painted scene is in excellent condition.  The colors are still vibrant and there is no sign of flaking.  The hanger has traces of the green edge paint, so it is original to the piece.  The edge painted too shows no faults.  At the 4:30 position is a tiny edge chip.  Though I can’t read the message, it appears to be in French.  Postmarked Canton DE 18 85.  The stamp is from Hong Kong.  This little jewel is ready to display.  You’ll love it!
