Vintage Halloween at Moulin Rouge -Postcard Friendship Friday #192

grace bailhache postcard frienship halloween paris vintage

Guess who’s back ? Not for long unfortunatelly, I’m still too busy to be back for the usual new blog posts, but it’s Halloween and I wanted to share with my fellow bloggers and postcards lovers this vintage Moulin Rouge for a « Redoute masquée » which was a kind of  » High society masquerade party » while the simple « bals » were more for working class people at that time. I already post a vintage postcard that feature the famous  La Goulue.

Back Halloween, as I told some of you, we don’t celebrate it here like in the US. When I was child I loved the « mardi gras » because it was the occasion to masquerate at school, nowadays I saw kids doing Halloween at school at well, but that all, as far as I know. I went to an Halloween cocktail party yesterday, I’ll probably publish the picture tomorrow or next week, I’m waiting for my girl friend to email me her, I didn’t have my phone with me.

Just in case, you didn’t saw them, you can check the postcard I have received after my call Would you send me a postcard ? I put some of the english readers here  Travelling home thanks to your postcards and the french readers are here : Grace Bailhache vous remercie pour les cartes postales. In those posts, I thank you all and I was sorry not to be able to reach one of two persons, I hope it’s just a question of time.

  1. Again the moulin rouge ? It’s not even that beautiful, it’s small. The death are not death for us did you forget ? Take care sista

    1. Oooo Alphonsyne don’t be so hard and selfish…The moulin rouge is a symbol and I do love the place, the history behind that. Ok never mind…Thanks for stopping by…

      1. I don’t know Grace, after all it’s only a place where women expose themselves nake for so long, how could I like such a place and pretending to be a supporter of women proud ? I can’t. I still like you sista.

        1. Hummm…Dear you pushing a little…We’re talking about artistic performance sometime a little nake (less than the crazy horse, I think you’re probably confusing both of them) and performs by adult, so I don’t see where is the big deal. Anyway we disagree about this topic. Never mind…It’s fine for me.

  2. Nice card une maya l’abeille avec un bout de mère noelle ce dessinateur a des fantasmes bizarres. How do you say maya l’abeille in English ? . My parents and grand parents are still alive my girl friend too, we stay home today because last night we dance all night.

      Ooops ! Honestly I know that bee is abeille, but that all…

      Lucky both of you…Have a good rest dear

      1. Poor of me, you don’t want me anymore ? You can’t, you told me to be cool Grace, it’s your faulte. I spend a very good week end I hope you too.

    1. Merci Laurence, et désolée pour ce retard dans la réponse, ton commentaire était dans les spams, dieu seul sait pourquoi

  4. Ouh là là Grace tu as des cartes magnifiques où l’as tu trouvé ? Désolée de ne pas écrire en anglais, j’espère que tu ne l’as pas dis. Bisou.

    1. Ah çà fait plaisir Merveille, ne t’en fais, je sais que tu aimes les cartes et ce n’est pas grave si tu postes en anglais ici. Celle-ci m’a été envoyé il y’a des années par un ami que j’aimais énormément, et j’en avais acheté une aussi, que j’ai récemment envoyé dans le cadre du posscrossing. Si jamais j’ai à nouveau l’occasion, je penserais à toi, puisque je sais maintenant que tu aimes le vintage. A bientôt.

  5. Nice but not my type of woman and card sorry Grace. What is your favorite costume for halloween or a masquerade ? Today I send you a lot of good vibes I know it’s not a good day for you.

    1. Ooooo thank you dearest Philippe. Never mind, you’re not the only one, you’ll perfectly match with Alphonsyne today….Smiles !

  6. I love your Mouln Rouge postcard, Grace. Are you thinking of trading it? For sure you have had it since at least this summer. Last weekend we went to Baton Rouge, in Louisiana.

    Nice too that you could come back for Halloween. It seems that no ghosts or gobblins captured you. Our granddaughter, age four, went trick-or-treating in London last night. Last year Mrs. Jim and I went with her. This year just Mom and Big Sister. Dad had to stay home to give out candy.

    They say that Hallowe
