Postal envelope with Spanish stamps and postmarks, addressed to Monsieur et Madame Jacques Blot in Évreux, France. The reverse bears the printed return address “SON ABRINES · CALAMAYOR · PALMA DE MALLORCA,” corresponding to Joan Miró’s residence.

Family provenance:
According to the story passed down in the family, Jacques Blot, the envelope’s recipient, gave it to the current owner’s father as a token of friendship, probably in the late 1960s. They met while the father was working at a Spanish consular office in Bonn, Germany. The envelope has remained in the family ever since.
