New acquisitions: sepia postcards by Cinémagazine

Ivo Blom recently bought a series of sepia postcards of silent film stars published by Editions Cinémagazine in Paris. Cinémagazine-Edition or just CE was the publisher of the film magazine of the same name, that was popular all over Europe. It was a weekly magazine that existed between 1921 and 1935. In an earlier EFSP post you can read more about this firm. In today's post you'll find a selection of Ivo's new finds combined with some of my own postcards that were not published at EFSP before: 25 CE cards with Hollywood stars.
