52 Scenes et Types des Pyrenees

Two cards, same number, two different descriptions.  One reads "Jeunes Chiens des Pyrenees" and the other "Petits Chiens de Montagne - Du Chenil Club d'Argeles".  A fairly common card that comes in black and white, sepia, and coloured versions.  The initials C.A.P. appear on the front lower right corner..a publishing? company in Paris.  Mary Milliken of Ripples kennel in the USA was a big collector of cards and she sent me several to get my own collection started.  This was one of them.  She has since passed and I believe that her cards were distributed to Pyr friends and family.  Mary even published her own set of 6 cards featuring one of her litters which she kindly donated to our Club as a fundraiser.
