PFF - Vintage French New Year Postcard with Mailbox



Bonne année is French for Happy New Year. I have several vintage French New Year postcards with a mailbox (boîte aux lettres) theme. Isn't it strange how the scene looks more like spring than winter?

I have a new button on my sidebar for the Vintage Postcard Forum. Check out the forum if you are interested in vintage postcards.

that little girl is so cute! I feel as if I've seen her on several other postcards on PFF. It is odd how the pic looks so springy. Happy new year!
