This is a postal stationery card issued for use in the Italian colony of Eritrea, inscribed “Cartolina Postale Italiana, con Risposta” (Italian Postal Card, with Reply). Printed in red, it features a 10 centesimi imprinted stamp depicting King Umberto I of Italy, framed in ornate detail. At center is the Savoy coat of arms with royal crown and crossed flags, symbolizing Italian authority in the colony. The card includes French text (“Carte postale d’Italie, avec réponse”), reflecting international postal conventions of the period.
Such stationery was widely used in Italian colonies for official and personal correspondence, often sent back to Italy or abroad. Unused and well-preserved examples, such as this one, are desirable among collectors of Italian colonies, Eritrea, and postal stationery.
