POSTCARDS: The Polish Uniforms 1797-1815 part 1
Our postcard series titled: The Polish Uniform 1797-1815 is for all collectors and Napoleonic era enthusiasts, as well as those who appreciate military artwork. Illustrations of cavalry and infantry soldiers were taken from our albums. The whole set contains 90 colour postcards (format 5,8 x 4,1 in,14,8 x 10,4 cm), divided into 10 series of 9 postcards, each in a separate case. All the postcards and series are numbered, and each case offers a description of the pictures in Polish and English. The front of the postcard presents a colour plate painted by Ryszard Morawski. The reverse side is designed so the cards can be used as postcards as well as a collector’s item. Each picture is captioned in four languages: Polish, French, English and German.
