tobben63 the trick is to find a few cancels that appeal to your tastes and put them to one side then keep thinking I must do something about that growing pile, hmm now it needs a shoebox, then suddenly each country needs an envelope or box. Before long there is a large cupboard set aside.....

!0c Sower not sure when the postcard was first issued, but this is April 27, 1906 - Claude Bernard was a well known physiologists and some consider him the "Father" of this branch of science. I'm not sure if the letter preceding CLAUDE is a R. or an H. and after BERNARD if that is 8z or what? cancellation in Paris... He died in 1878 in Paris, but a search brings up a hotel named after him in Paris and perhaps the fisrt letter is a "H" for Hotel... and they had their own postal branch. But the website only seems for reservations and lots of photos..... looks rarher modern. The reverse has some handwriting in English, but is truncated by the cut out... though it does mention a date of February 28- If we only knew the whole story....  anyone know anything about this?  |

It's an "R", for "Rue Claude Bernard", located in the 5th arrondissement of Paris near the Sorbonne, where I infer there must have been a post office. Claude Bernard is indeed considered (in France at least) the father of experimental medicine and one of his books is standard reading (or at least was when I was in school) for philosophy classes at the end of high school in the scientific sections as it clearly states the philosophical foundations of the experimental method and of the scientific enterprise. And, coincidentally, I had a great-uncle with that same name.
