[GRENOBLE, France]. - P. GAUDE and others (photographers).

An album, mostly snapshots, recording life, friends and special events at an all-girls school/college in Grenoble, France. [Switzerland: c. 1925-1930]. Oblong quarto (7 1/2 x 11in; 190 x 280mm).  About 247 photographs (4 3/4 x 6 5/8in; 120 x 168and smaller) by P. Gaude of Grenoble and others, recto and verso of 24 grey thin card leaves. Original textured cloth (extremities a little rubbed).

A fine album, focused on the school: its pupils, its activities and its surroundings. The presence of what is now known as the Perret Tower gives a now earlier date of 1925. The fashions suggest the no-later-than date of 1930 [see images].
