Photographic papers: Azo
The divided back of this postcard is untravelled but has a handwritten note on the left edge. It also has a stampbox printed with symbols in such a way that it represents the years of manufacture of this postcard backing used to make this Real Photo Post Card. Azo photographic papers with this design were made from 1922-1926 and would have had a shelf life of about two years.
