Description

1904 (Dec 17) Yokohama Piano & Organ Warehouse printed illustrated 1½ sen postcard showing man reading music to Baroness Corvisart cancelled Yokohama cds & with interesting message “My tuner called twice at your residence, but was not admitted. Do you wish to give up the yearly tuning engagement ? If not kindly let me know when it suits best to have the piano tuned…….At this time her husband Lt. Colonel Baron Corvisart was acting as French Military Observer with the Japanese 1st Army HQ at the Sha-Ho river in Manchuria during the Russo-Japanese war so perhaps she had a little more on her mind than having the piano tuned !!.
