Beautiful lady


The card is made to celebrate Sainte. Catherine Day, but unfortunately I have no idea who this lovely lady is and the postmark is illegible.

Humphrey Bogart


Some loves Gene Kelly, some love Sinatra, but Bogart is my absolute dream guy :)

Audrey Hepburn


Audrey Hepburn in Sabrina, postcard published in 1955. A favorite, of course!

Marlene Dietrich


This is not a replica so it's highly valuable to me. One of my favorite actresses of all times, Marlene Dietrich. (Of course I found those too on the Old Stock Market and paid a lot for the cards of Dietrich, Bogart and Hepburn)

Old Russian Postcard


An old postcard from Russia that Özlem sent to me. I love the expression on the women's faces, it also reminds me a little of Anna Karanina. The card was sent on 06 (?)/12/1917. It's pretty damaged unfortunately.

Women on the cliff


One of my favorites from the old Stock Market batch, women on the cliff, printed in Italy.

Someone


 A postcard possibly made of a photograph that I found in the Old Stock Market in Lille, it dates 1916.

Old Lille


The next couple of postcards are vintage postcards I found at my favorite spot in Lille, the old stock market. There are sellers of old postcards, books, records and such in its yard. This is a postcard of Lille, the town house and it's a replica of a 1909 card.
