The albums were auctioned in Antwerp in 1996 ( Collection Prof. Walter Couvreur ). Subject: The printed poster was intended as a shop poster to indicate the physical place were the sale of gunpowder was to take place. When in 1746 the French troups under Maurice de Saxe invaded the Southern Netherlands ( Austrian war of Succession) the private use of guns and ammunition was severely restricted. The sale of gunpowder was a monopoly of the invading troups. The document refers to ordinances proclaimed by the ''Monseigneur l'Intendant de Flandres & des Armées du Roy'' from 14-07-1744 and 13-07-1746. Extremely rare document.‎
