Antique Egyptian Postcard – General View of Bedrechein, c. 1900

Antique Egyptian postcard titled “General View of Bedrechein,” showing the palm-lined village and waterways of Bedrechein, the historic village near ancient Memphis and the Saqqara area. The image bears the Bonfils name, associated with the celebrated Maison Bonfils photographic studio, which produced important views of Egypt and the wider Middle East during the late 19th century.

An especially nice surviving example, posted from Egypt on 7 December 1900, retaining its original Egyptian postage stamp and cancellation and addressed to New Haven, Connecticut, USA. The reverse is printed “Union Postale Universelle – Egypte – Carte Postale” and “Sold at Mr. Ch. Livadas – Cairo.” Displays expected age-related toning, marks and edge wear.
