EDITORS COMMENTS
Step aboard the P.O. Midi French Railways and embark on an unforgettable journey through the picturesque landscapes of France, as depicted in this evocative image from the programme for the Revue Folies Bergère at the French Casino in New York, 1934. The photograph captures the elegance and sophistication of the era, with the iconic red and white train of the P.O. Midi French Railways winding its way through the rolling hills and vineyards, en route to the medieval city of Carcassonne. Founded in 1853, the P.O. Midi French Railways played a significant role in connecting France's major cities and towns, and this advertisement serves as a testament to the company's reach and influence during the Jazz Age of the 1930s. Carcassonne, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is a must-visit destination for history buffs and travelers alike, with its stunning fortified walls, cobblestone streets, and breathtaking views of the Aude River. The Revue Folies Bergère was a popular cabaret show that ran from 1869 to 1960, and the French Casino in New York was a hub of French culture and entertainment during the 1930s. This advertisement invites us to imagine the excitement and glamour of a transatlantic journey, followed by a weekend getaway to the enchanting city of Carcassonne. This photograph is a fascinating snapshot of a bygone era, and a reminder of the rich history and cultural exchange that defined the 1930s. Whether you're a history buff, a travel enthusiast, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of France, this image is sure to transport you to another time and place.
