Vintage Jacques de Vaucanson Postcard

Vintage chromolithographed trade card reads: Vaucanson, né en 1709, créa les Automates en 1733, meurt en 1782. Translated to English, this means, “Vaucanson, born in 1709, created the automatons in 1733, died in 1782.” Vaucanson was a famous automata builder, and is pictured here with a drummer automaton. Small tear, else in very good condition.
