I just received this in the mail this last week. Card is not in perfect condition, but it is very interesting (well at least to me!) Dame Turque, I cannot quite make out the cursive, I will pass along to the French in my family to decipher. The post franking is not clear to me, appears 13 or 15 1901, but the receiving frank is very nice from Vienna   |

Cool!
To me, this is a perfect example of a postcard that should probably NOT be made into a maxicard.
It is vintage and circulated.
Not just rare, but unique due to the handwriting and postmarks.
It is crowded, in a good way, so a maxicardization would only detract from the artistic impression.
If I had a handful of these, mailed in bulk back then, then I might experiment with maxicardizing one of them, just for "schitzengiggles".
