    Very interesting, indeed, No one. I imagine that the photograph would have been taken in 1918 (or 1919?) but is there any writing or a date on the postcard's reverse, please?

    Dear Trooper_D,

     

    "... the photograph would have been taken in 1918 (or 1919?)...Yes, probably.

     

    "... is there any writing or a date on the postcard's reverse,..." No, nothing. All the postcards I saw were "virgin".

    There is the same in black and white but from a different company:

    Thanks for your answer, No One. It is nice to have a postcard in pristine condition but so much more interesting when there is writing on the other side that might provide some historical context, isn't it!?

    Yes, it is, indeed. But we can only give what we have.
