Swoon! This is one my favorites!!! Ville de Saint Denis French Advertising is seen here. This is a French Advertising card for a Paris Department Store. I adore the amazing Typography on this Ephemera piece! It would be a wonderful place to visit for sure!

Shown above is the front of an antique sales flyer for a Furniture manufacturer in Paris. I just love the ornate frame in the center. The beautiful typography is just stunning. And, of course, it has a Paris address.

I’m so excited to share this fabulous piece of French Ephemera with you!! Surely by now you’ve figured out how much I love all things French, especially old French papery things with French words on them! This is a gorgeous antique Chocolate / Cacao ad. It is so dreamy with it’s lovely worn patina.

Here’s another lovely piece of French Ephemera from my dear French friend Miette from La Miette Bricole!!! Miette has been digging through some family papers with her Father in order to share with us some more wonderful things. How nice of both of them! Merci Miette! And thank you to your Father too!

French Biscuit Label

Above is a Vintage Aged 1849 Paris Biscuit Label! This 1849 French Biscuit label shows a Paris address and is nicely aged in tones of gold and rust. There is a simple black line frame with stroke ornament at each corner.

Pictured above is a pretty French Girl Frame Advertising Card showing a little Girl with a Tapestry and loads of flowers! It has an exquisite frame with fabric hanging from it. I thought the back of the card was quite nice too! Don’t you just love the French language and the typography?
