Description

Charming 1930s French Walt Disney–authorized postcard featuring characters drawn in the unmistakable likeness of Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse in a sweet romantic “flowers for you” scene. This card was published in France and is fully marked on the back: “Éditions M. L. Paris – Par Autorisation: Walt Disney – Mickey Mouse S.A.” This confirms it as an authentic, licensed European Disney postcard — and an increasingly scarce one. 🎨 Front Image Details Mickey-style character, wearing classic red shorts , yellow gloves, and big shoes, presents a bouquet of roses with a gentlemanly flourish of his lavender top hat. Minnie-style character, in a blue skirt and yellow gloves , reacts joyfully and bashfully at her doorway. Soft pastel brickwork, charming street details, and the expressive faces give this card that distinct 1930s French Disney aesthetic. Caption reads: “Quelques fleurs pour vous, Madame !…” (“Some flowers for you, Madame!”) This artwork belongs to the beloved era of early European Disney licensing, where French illustrators rendered Mickey and Minnie in slightly stylized forms while keeping their unmistakable likeness. 📬 Back Details Postmarked Paris – Gare du Nord – 12 August 1935 . Two French 40c violet stamps (Type Semeuse). Beautiful handwritten French message. Printed on left: “Éditions M. L. Paris – Par autorisation: Walt Disney – Mickey Mouse S.A.” “Fabrication Française” down the center line. Full usage and period ink—all correct for mid-1930s French postcards. 📚 Historical Context In the early-to-mid 1930s, Disney licensed a small number of European publishers to produce region-specific Mickey Mouse ephemera.

  2. The card arrived in excellent condition despite the efforts of the US post office to return it to the sender even though it had the correct address on it ? Seller was very co-operative in communicating and then re sending the card again packaged very securely. Shipped quickly, despite the post office problem. The card is old but it was better than the description in the listing. I am very pleased and I recommend the seller highly.
