Commentary

Essai (?) d'assignat sur carte à jouer, 7 de carreau. Une signature manuscrite. Provient d'un lot vendu en 2015 par la Société Millon, cette carte était accompagnée de deux autres dont une signée Firmin Didot. Sur cet exemplaire la signature est attribuée à un certain Henri Durz (?), nous pensons qu'il s'agit plutôt de Henri Didot, le frère de Firmin Didot qui était lui aussi imprimeur et typographe..
Essay (?) of an assignat on a playing card, 7 of diamonds. A handwritten signature. From a lot sold in 2015 by the Société Millon, this card was accompanied by two others, one of which was signed by Firmin Didot. On this example, the signature is attributed to a certain Henri Durz (?), we believe that it is rather Henri Didot, the brother of Firmin Didot who was also a printer and typographer.
