[Eilleen]

Hello, Me again,

need help if possible with what it says on stamp,
and any translations of written words. x

I have added pictures just because you might like to see them , I know I would .x

Eilleen.

Rough translations:

Card 1
To our friend this modest souvenir, Andrée

Card 2
In remembrance of our old friendship I address to you this small souvenir, Marius?

The postal stamp is not complete enough to make out where it's from, but it is in German.

Is it from a prison camp?

gefangenenlager - prison camp

The purple stamp is from a German POW camp for officers - one of the words is 'Passed'. My guess is that it's a censor's stamp on incoming mail. Unfortunately a lot of it is missing, but there might just be enough for someone who knows about these things to identify it.

Both are addressed to Monsieur Pierre Sonet; the details differ, but both mention Artillery. Again, it might take an expert in French military matters and/or POW camp locations to interpret the rest.

Rather than Marius, I think the second card is signed by Marie - it has the same ending as 'Artillerie'.

[Eilleen]

you are all brilliant,

Pierre Sonet was in a prisoner of war camp , world war 1

He was an officer and flew planes ,

I am having a big learning curve at the moment x

His Mother had Marie in Her name and so did His Mother-in-law to be ?

but I would have thought His Mother would have signed Mother x

Eilleen.

Hi,

Doesn't help much, I know, but the purple stamp from the officers' POW camp (whichever camp it may be - that part is missing) says "geprüft und freigegeben" = checked and released, i.e. it could be passed on to the intended recipient.

[arthurk]

..."geprüft und freigegeben" = checked and released, i.e. it could be passed on to the intended recipient.

Thanks, Karen - I misread that bit, but the meaning was essentially the same.

Here's what I read :
First carte postale : what manukarik translated. Childish writing , must be the little girl on the photograph who wrote , she was called Andrée.
Right side : Sonet Pierre , 60(eme) rg(regiment )artill(erie),2 (eme) batterie

Second one : same as manukarik ,signed Marie  (must be the woman on the photograph), adult writing
Sonet Pierre , maréchal des lo(gis)
60 artillerie

[Eilleen]

That is brilliant,

I never thought about a child writting on it .

thank you , Eilleen.
