Good questions, my friends, but this time you have to send in the solutions yourselves, I am just going to give you some hints: This postal card was sent from BORDEAUX Garonde on July 20th, 1924, and the machine slogan cancel says: "JEUX OLYMPIQUES / PARIS / MAI - JUIN - JUILLET / 1924".

You can click here: and send me your ideas on how this cancel / card is related to Volleyball. I have some nice philatelic items (needless to say that they are related to our favourite sport) as prizes for you (see end of this page).

Detail of the cancel Complete machine cancel
