☆☆☆☆☆

This list is for 5 ORIGINAL 1900s postcards, not a scan or facsimile.

In this photo shoot at Walery’s studios, four artists appear in their stage costumes posing with large fans. There are four individual portraits in addition to a triple portrait. All the actresses wear the same oriental-inspired outfit, hand-colored in different shades (green, blue, yellow, pink) and decorated with golden dots.
These are probably the advertising postcards for an oriental pantomime, very fashionable in vaudeville and cabaret shows in Paris in the 1900s.

🌠Exceptionally beautiful collection and hard to find 🌠

The cards will be shipped from Spain by airmail, you can choose tracking number postage if you prefer.
I will be happy answering any question. All sales are final.
