This vintage postcard features an intricate illustration of the French transatlantic ocean liner "France," prominently noted as a grand vessel servicing the route between Le Havre and New York. The detailed sepia-toned image highlights the ship's four towering smokestacks and robust profile, capturing the engineering marvel of early 20th-century maritime travel. The text on the front describes the ship's impressive specifications, including its 220 meters length, 4 propellers generating 23.5 knots, and capacity for 2,000 passengers.Printed on standard 5.5 x 3.5 inch paper, this postcard carries a rich historical connection to French maritime heritage. The reverse side reveals a handwritten message in French, postmarked from New York in 1926, and adorned with a 60 centime French postage stamp, adding authenticity and collectible value. This piece is a must-have for collectors interested in ocean liners, early 20th-century travel, and French postal history.
