La Poste issued on October 8, 2011 an innovative series of four souvenir sheets which include pieces of real mechanical lace... The piece of lace was hot-glued on a paper that, after having been cut, was stuck on each stamp of the four sheets with a denomination of €2,50.
Merci beaucoup Daniel for this nice FDC from the commune of Le-Puy-en-Velay, in the Haute-Loire department, south-central France. The Bobbin lace teaching centre is located there.
