Cityscapes are also present, depicting locations like “Principauté de Monaco,” historic European towns, and British architecture with signs like “KING WILLIAM HOTEL” and “WALES & SON CONFECTIONERS.” The collection further includes historical figures, notably Napoleon Bonaparte, and reproductions of artworks, such as interior genre scenes. The postcards are made from standard cardstock or heavy paper, and the album likely features plastic or paper sleeves.
