1934 - Rare Extraordinary Air Airmail from the « Parfums Chanel » (Neuilly) to Rangoon, Burma – Air France Vignette Exceptionally rare original commercial letter sent on August 19, 1934 by the famous house Les Parfums Chanel S.A. (then located at 135, Avenue de Neuilly in Neuilly-sur-Seine). This fold testifies to the international influence of haute French perfumery in the 1930s and to the history of airmail. Sender: Les Parfums Chanel S.A., Neuilly-sur-Seine. Recipient: The National Bank of India, Rangoon, Burma (British India / Far East). Postage & Cancellations: French stamps cancelled by the Neuilly-sur-Seine date stamp of 19.08.1934. Notable markings: Blue rectangular “PAR AVION” transport vignette. Routing stamp and typographic note “Via Air France - South America / Far East”. On the back: Stunning and rare round Air France closing vignette (depicting the winged hippocampus) accompanying the envelope flap, as well as the transit mark. Condition: Good overall for a vintage commercial international mail item that traveled the world, with an authentic patina and respectful signs of use (see photos). A must-have piece for collectors of luxury postal history, Chanel, or commercial aviation of the interwar period. A premier discovery for a prestigious themed collection.
