Company
This is a large series of trade cards issued in France, showing the coat of arms of cities, with a small city view. The cards were issued as blancs and could be printed by different companies and used as trade cards. In this case the front of the cards is not printed with the company, only the reverse gives information. All cards have the same text on the reverse.
La Kabiline was a trade mark for the Ets Legris (later Legris & Son) company from Versailles. The company made fabric dyes and issued many different series of trade cards. La Kabiline is named after the Kabylie region in (now) Algeria, known for its dyes.
