Vintage 1907 Pintsch Luxembourg Multi View Postcard Cafe Epicerie Undivided Back
Take a trip to 1907 Luxembourg with this fantastic multi view postcard from the small village of Pintsch. The sender literally drew an arrow to a building in the top panel and wrote No place like home which adds a uniquely personal touch to the landscape view. You will notice the sender wrote their message entirely on the front of the card rather than the back. This is not a mistake but a postal necessity because this is an undivided back postcard where international mailing regulations strictly reserved the entire reverse side for the address only. It is a fantastic piece of mailed history with great postmarks including a bold Hampton Minnesota forwarding stamp on the back. It shows standard age wear including corner rounding slight edge wear and overall toning so please check the high resolution scans to see exactly what you are getting.
As an authentic vintage piece, this item may show typical signs of age, which can include minor edge wear, soft or bumped corners, slight yellowing, and light surface blemishes. Please carefully examine all provided high-resolution photos for the most accurate and definitive representation of the item\'s condition prior to purchasing. Trivia Corner
The bottom left panel features a building labeled Cafe Epicerie which roughly translates to Cafe Grocery. In small European villages like Pintsch during the early 1900s it was incredibly common for a single building to serve as both the local pub for drinking and the main grocery store for daily supplies making it the absolute social epicenter of the town.
