This fascinating French school notebook from the 1920s offers a rare glimpse into the daily lessons of a young girl, Lucienne André, attending 'Cours moyen 2ème année' (intermediate course, 2nd year). Written entirely in French with beautiful, clear handwriting, this vintage educational ephemera is a rich historical artifact. All pages have been carefully photographed for your detailed examination, revealing a comprehensive record of her studies.

The notebook covers subjects like domestic economy, dictations, grammar, geography, and mathematics. It's a tangible connection to a bygone era, reflecting the curriculum and teaching methods of 1920s France. Each page, filled with diligent penmanship, tells a silent story of childhood learning and discipline. For example, one entry reads: 'Vendredi 10 Février 1928 - Economie Domestique - Les Graisses' (Friday February 10, 1928 - Domestic Economy - Fats). Another reveals a math problem: 'Un négociant vend une pièce de toile de 85 mètres pour 238 fr 25...' (A merchant sells a piece of fabric 85 meters long for 238.25 francs...).

Collectors of French historical documents, educational memorabilia, or anyone with an interest in social history will find this notebook deeply evocative. It's more than just a school book, it's a personal window into a young student's life and the cultural context of post-WWI France. Its authentic handwritten pages make it a wonderful resource for creative projects, such as junk journaling, scrapbooking, or as a unique decorative piece.
