AFW - Antique France Worldwide

An old postmarked postcard depicting the road from Menton to Ventimiglia, published by Giletta in Nice. The colorized scene shows a group of people and donkeys on an elevated path, with rocky cliffs to the right and a view of the town and mountains in the background. The pastel colors and printing style indicate an old print, typical of early 20th-century postcards. Visible printed captions: "Route de Menton à Vintimille" (Road from Menton to Ventimiglia) and "Edition Giletta, phot., Nice."

The item is used and sold as is, with signs of wear and a visible postmark. Some marks and slightly blunted corners, due to age, are to be noted.
