Something Fishy This Way Comes

Something Fishy This Way Comes
A French real photo postcard for April Fools' Day, called poissons d'avril (April fish) in France. There's no postmark on this hand-tinted card, but it likely dates to the early twentieth century.

"1er Avril. Si tu devines que l'envoie, / Tu n'es pas la moitié d'une oie!"

John FitzGerald, Smiley Derleth have particularly liked this photo
