Bronze – 119.55 g – 68 mm – 12 h Description engraved in the cartouche on the reverse: JEAN LOUIS MAUGER. Hallmark (JB triangle) BRONZE on the edge. Superb. Founded in 1822 by Nicolas Le Marié near Quimper, the Odet paper mills marked the beginning of the Bolloré family’s industrial empire, which took over management shortly afterwards. Specialising in fine paper during the 20th century, the factory became world-famous for its production of cigarette rolling paper, giving rise in particular to the iconic OCB brand (Odet-Cascadec-Bolloré).
