Comments:
There is no weavers name anywhere on this card. The design of the silk, together with printing and embossing on the card however is identical to the three Coat Of Arms cards recorded on this site, and these are believed to be of GRANT manufacture.

From this World Fairs web site, there is a link to "Palais des Mines et Métallurgie", which has an excellent picture of the view above, all be it taken from the right hand side of the building.
