Early 20th-century postmarked envelope, orange Semeuse stamps, philately
AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Old postmarked envelope from the early 20th century, sent by the company J. Guilbert in Villers-Bretonneux (Somme), addressed to Amiens. It features two 25c "Semeuse" (Sower) orange French stamps, clearly visible on the front, as well as a Paris postmark dated 1930. The address and inscriptions are handwritten, typical of the era.
The envelope shows moderate wear consistent with its age: some folds, signs of time, and slight ink marks, but remains in generally good condition for an old postal document.
