The Customs Road – Chemin des Douanier – ca 1923 on the chalk cliffs of Ault (Picardy, France), with a distant view at the Normandy chalk cliffs of Le Tréport. This Chemin des Douanier path is part of the several 1000s of kilometers long customs trail along the French coast created in the late 1700s to fight smuggling, illegal trade and fraudulent landings. Postcard made by the Ault photographer Maurice Lévêque. Image edited from scan dated July 21, 1923 in the Archives de la Somme (#8FI2408). Postcard was compared with a recent photo in yesterday’s video post (Falaise #158)
