Twenty-nine French matchboxes, 1950

 File — Box: CFC Matchboxes Box 2
Identifier: CFC2019.0125.1
Abstract

This almost-complete set, missing only "Les Deux Pigeons," replicates the full set of covers in both sets of SEITA illustrations, minus the two larger covers apparently used for packages of ten. Their images are thus the same as that set.

Dates: 1950

French Matchboxes, 1950

Abstract

These are the first that I found, and they are those pictured first below. What a pleasure to see covers I had found in two other places now on their boxes. FG, TMCM, and "La Taupe et les Lapins" repeat from there. Strong new designs here include "La Belette Entrée dans un Grenier," FK, "Le Heron," and "Le Renard et le Bouc."

Abstract

This matchbook features an image of a fox looking up at Aesop, who holds a staff. The restaurant advertises itself as "Riverside's Finest." A quick check in Google seems to indicate that this restaurant, however fabulous it was, no longer exists.
