WHAT IS A POSTCARD?
Collectors, publishers, historians or the Post Office gave their own
definition. But there is one, very simple and can be used:
"The postcard is printed on a semi-rigid for use postal mail for a
short short." (1).
The object so defined, it is now possible to enter his small world
with a little history, a little technical but also postcards from
the collection of the Conservatoire Régional de la Carte Postale.
It is in this spirit that the window of the Regional Conservatory of
Postcards from the CARTOPOLE BAUD demonstrates that this trivial
piece of cardboard that everyone has at one time or another sent or
received is a great tool communication,
friendliness, scientific or artistic expression.
The postcard is the object that has the largest number of outlets
worldwide. It remains a unique way of communicating that does not
replace the letter, telephone, fax or email.
The best evidence: what are some 300 million postcards that
circulate each year in France.
(1) We owe it to Albert THINLOT (1914-1992) Cartophile recognized,
co-author with Paul-Noel ARMAND (1921-1989) the history of the
picture postcard French and Francophone Cartophile Dictionary. Two
reference books on postcard.
