Postcard (unused) advertising optical and photographic store J.[Joseph] GAMBS in Lyon (France). The basic optical workshop was founded in 1856.

Gambs was an author of several patent solutions concerning reproduction of color in film projection and light source in cine projectors (applied e.g. for Lumière cinematograph).
