Visé Paris

"Visé Paris" (sometimes Vise Paris or Visa Paris) frequently appeared on postcards printed in France during WW1, often on the reverse. Usually - but not always - it was immediately followed by a number, or referred to a number on the front of the postcard, and was preceded by some information about the editor, publisher or printer. Visé Paris meant that the card had been referred (Visé = referred) via a central department in Paris for approval for the image to be published. The number would be the publishers chosen number of the card to be referred and subsequently approved.
