Napoleon – Campaign of 1809
Twenty-Sixth Bulletin of the German Army, followed by the 27th and 28th bulletins.
Mende, Lozère Prefecture, July 27, 1809.
J.-J.-M. Igon Printing House, the Prefect's printer.

Grand display board announcing the news of the Austria campaign: enemy retreat, battles of Hollabrunn and Znaïm, actions of the Duke of Rivoli, the Prince of Liechtenstein, nominations of Oudinot, Macdonald, Duke of Ragusa, etc. Published by Prefect Florens for the mayors of the department. A rare Lozère provincial print, very uncommon, gathering three bulletins on a single sheet.

Overall good condition for an antique wardrobe: old creases, some stains and spots, edges slightly frayed. No missing parts.

Rare piece. A fine witness to the administrative dissemination of military information under the Empire.
