This original early 20th-century photo postcard captures a vivid scene of oyster fishing in Cancale, Brittany, France. Featuring sailors hauling in oyster dredges aboard a traditional fishing vessel, the black and white image offers a fascinating glimpse into the maritime heritage and coastal economy of this iconic French fishing village. The postcard is part of the Collection Crolard, Cancale series, adding to its collectible value for enthusiasts of French regional history and vintage maritime postcards.Printed during the divided back era (1907-1915), this standard 5.5 x 3.5 inch postcard exemplifies photographic printing techniques of the time, providing authentic historical context. With clear French text identifying the subject as "Pêche aux Huîtres (Marins rentrant les Dragues)," it is an ideal piece for collectors interested in early 1900s European photo postcards, French seaside culture, and nautical themes. The card's blank address side is typical of the period, making it a perfect addition for vintage postcard collections or maritime history displays.
