The American Library in Paris is celebrating its 90th anniversary with a special display featuring images, books, and archives from its 90 year history. The display will run from today (Nov. 30) through January 30, 2011. The envelope above is one of two that I have that were mailed by the American Library in Paris. I did a previous post on the other envelope on January 20 of this year. The American Library in Paris is one of the legacies of the American Library Association's Library War Service during World War I. A history of the library is located on its website. The envelope above was mailed on November 20, 1934 to the Card Division of the Library of Congress. There is a Library of Congress date received stamp showing that it was received on November 30, 1934.
