Fox and Crow Fable Card · Carlson Fable Collection

Title: Fox and Crow Fable Card
Description: 1950? Full-colored cartoon card of FC. Lyon: Volumetrix. No artist acknowledged. $4 from Bertrand Cocq, Calonne-Ricouart, France, Sept., ’20.

A little research suggests that Volumetrix expanded to include a Paris location and that they produced many cards for collection. The two different fable series found on the web seem to include titles on the illustration side of their cards. There is no such title here. It is hard to know whether this is a trade card or simply a “fable card.” With no evidence that it was used to sell a product, I will include it with fable cards. There is a stamped set of purpose letters at a 90 degree angle to the fable text on the verso.
Date: 1950?
