Reverse description The reverse centres on a panoramic engraved vignette of the town and headland of Granville as seen from the sea, with its clifftop buildings, ramparts, and waterfront structures rendered in fine detail. Denomination roundels reading '1 Fr.' appear in circles at lower left and right, flanking a decorative floral garland underprint at bottom centre. The validity notice appears in two lines of bold letterpress text below the central vignette, and the dates '1915' and '1920' are enclosed in a rectangular cartouche at top centre, flanked by star ornaments within the Art Nouveau-influenced border.
