Commemorative Medals, France, Jacques Cartier (1907-2001), "Exposition 1937 - Centre Rural", silver plaquette, village in rural land- and sky-scape, signed in sunken rectangle, 42mm. x 61mm. extremely fine
The signature is unclear but the attribution Jacques Cartier seems certain. The medallist is not to be confused with Jacques-Théodule Cartier (1885–1942), one of three sons of Alfred Cartier of the jewellery family or, in turn, his son Jean-Jacques Cartier (1920-2011).
