Stamps

Floravène book The Société de la Floravène distributed a number of its advertising books to stamp collecting doctors in the Medical Corps. The Carnet Floravène has become rare since it was listed in the Yvert & Tellier and Gallia catalogues. As a result, the Société de la Floravène decided to offer its stamp collecting customers the several hundred books it had. It provided every buyer of a postal of: • 3 kilos (4 boxes for 30 francs) = block of 4 • 5 kilos (8 boxes for 60 francs) = 1/2 book. • 10 kilos (18 boxes for 130 francs) = 1 book A delicious food for breakfast or for different desserts, Floravène is also fortifying and delicious. Send orders to Société Floravène, 139, Boulevard du Président Wilson, Bordeaux. They will be sent in the order they are received. Postal cheque: Bordeaux no. 9056

The stamps appear to have been used well after they were available for sale (1929). Letters from 1935 (for Switzerland) and 1934.
