France: Rouen

On 13th March I got three postcards: one from France and two from Germany

The card from France shows two views of Rouen. Rouen is the capital of the region of Normandy. It is located on the river Seine and was one of the largest and most prosperous European cities in the Middle Ages.

The stamp celebrates the Centenary of The Kid (issued 01-03-2021), Charlie Chaplin's first full-length film as a director. I am not really sure why France decided to issue a stamp about this theme. It was cancelled in the philatelic shop in Rouen.


Thank You very much William!
