Antique & Vintage Postcards

Five sun-drenched vignettes capture the gilded glamour of the French Riviera's most famous principality — a sweeping aerial of the harbor, the ornate Casino gardens ablaze with flowers, the fairy-tale Prince's Palace perched on its rock, and two luminous bay panoramas that make Monte Carlo look exactly as dreamy as every postcard should. Published by Éditions Rella of Nice under their prestigious Collection "La Côte d'Azur" series, this colorized real-photograph card (marked Photographie Véritable) represents the golden era of postwar Riviera tourism, when jet-setters and honeymooners alike sent home these saturated, sun-soaked greetings. The card was never posted, leaving it crisp and collector-ready.
