This vintage photo postcard features a detailed black and white image of a traditional Chinese pagoda located in Cholon, an historic district of Saigon, Vietnam. The architecture showcases intricate roof carvings and classic East Asian design elements, providing a glimpse into early 20th-century Vietnamese cultural heritage. The postcard is part of the 'Série de Cochinchine' published by Claude et Cie, Éditeurs, Saigon, known for their early photographic postcards in French Indochina.Dating from the Undivided Back era (1901-1907), this standard-sized postcard (approximately 5.5 x 3.5 inches) reflects the original photographic print techniques used in Vietnam during that time. The back is reserved exclusively for the address, typical of postcards from this period, and remains unposted, preserving its collectible value. This postcard is a remarkable piece for collectors interested in Southeast Asian history, colonial-era postcards, and Asian architectural imagery.
