Description: INTERNATIONAL BUYERS:? The shipping rates shown are for '1st Class International Package' with tracking.? Ebay is also promoting their EIS International Shipping program on sellers pages. I do not use this program because it is more expensive, slower, not very transparent, and frustrating to the buyer, if something goes wrong. Do not select it, if ebay does show it as an option.

NARRATIVE: WHAT an atmosphere of youth and joy surrounds this charming girl, with her speaking dark eyes looking out from her big bonnet. How pretty she is in her modish gown and mitts, with fan and feather, and her shawl thrown gracefully around her. Let us guess the history of this happy maiden. Her name is Olympe, she is an orphan and eighteen years old. Her parents died years ago, leaving her to the care of her uncle, now a distinguished officer in the service of the Emperor, and his maiden sister. She has—of course—a lover, a dashing young captain of cavalry under Marshal Ney. He has just safely passed through the battle of Eichingen, and pretty Olympe's heart is glad. The day is fine and she is going for a walk in the Tuileries garden with her governess. Her smile is so bewitching that one wonders what her laugh is like. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Martin2001 Satisfaction Guaranteed Policy !
