STEVE AND CAROLE IN VENCE

Vence Postcards
Edition Azur

Manufacturer: Edition Azur – 7 postcards.

There are just four postcards in this collection manufactured under the name of Edition Azur.

The first card appears to be part of a series as there is a number. There’s no information on the front. A short location and description is found on the back of the card along with the number.

This second card is a bit unique. The front features four small black and white photos, one in each corner of the card. The photos are of: Fontaine du Peyra, la Cathédrale, a general view of the town and the Matisse Chapel. In the middle, between the photos, is a small twig from a plant, with a ribbon, is stapled to the card. It says, “Souvenir de Vence” on the front. There is no further information on the back of the card. There is no series number.

The third card is the same but with different flowers.

A fourth card is the same as the second and third, but missing the small twig. The company is listed as “Editions,” with an “s.”

No address is listed on the cards.
