ABSOLVIA MINOR

The following absolvia (Student Association) postcard does not indicate the city or town where the school was located. The building on the right-hand side appears to be the Kölner Dom (Cologne Cathedral), dedicated to the saints Peter and Mary and the seat of the Catholic Archbishop of Cologne. I haven't been able to identify the statue in the centre of the card or the school association signature written on the shield on the top right.

ABSOLVIA FÜRSTENRIED

This card was likely produced on behalf of the graduating pupils from Fürstenried Gymnasium in Munich in 1934. The image on the front of the postcard features a knight mounted on a horse approaching a large building, possibly Fürstenried Castle.

There was at least one other absolvia postcard issued in Fürstenried in 1933
