Description from the seller
EXCEPTIONAL: Important lot of 67 postcards by illustrators, characterized by a very strong presence of great Italian masters (17 highly rated cards) and British (4 cards), complemented by a superb thematic set.
This lot stands out for the quality and rarity of its European signatures, particularly sought after on the international cartophilia market. All rare cards have been scanned individually (front/back) to attest to their very good condition. A unique opportunity for demanding collectors and resellers.
Detailed composition of the lot (67 cards in total):
• Prestigious Italian selection (17 cards):
• Achille Mauzan (11 cards): Presented individually card by card. Splendid illustrations by this Franco-Italian master of Art Deco and caricature.
• Aurelio Bertiglia (1 card): Famous for his illustrations of children ("bimbi") mischievous. Signature very rare and sought after.
The cards in this lot span from the 1910s/1920s for Art Deco masters (Mauzan, Bertiglia, Sgrilli) to the 1950s/1960s for the thematic Jim Patt set."
• Aurelio Sgrilli (1 card): A child scene of great finesse.
• Edgardo Bompard (1 card): Renowned Italian painter and illustrator.
• Alberto Traldi & Édition Milano (2 cards): The elegance of early-century Milanese illustration.

• Fred Spurgin (2 cards): Famous illustrator, humorous and tender scenes highly collected.
• Graham Nash (1 card) & Quaint (1 card): Beautiful illustrations of the English school.
• Important French thematic ensemble (43 cards):
