Hi Lars,
The "S40" seems to be just the seller's stock code.
Similar codes appear on most of his other items.
I think he just mixed up Sweden and Denmark.
Thanks, Nigel!
It did seem strange for there to be a postcard from Sweden featuring a Danish landmark!
I didn't know if "Uniform Postcard" had a special meaning in Scandanavia.
Thanks for clearing that up for me!
Lars
As far as I can see it is just a postcard showing people in uniform.
And -
the postcard also shows an image of The Little Mermaid bronze statue
by Edvard Eriksen....
...a copy of which is here in my hometown along the riverbank in Greenville, Michigan!

We are, after all, Danish Festival City!

Lars,
I'll see what I can find out.
This item was listed by a seller in Australia as "Sweden Mermaid Uniform Postcard S40". No catalog was specified. Given that Copenhagen is in Denmark, not Sweden, I couldn't help but wonder if the Aussie seller was confused, but the "Uniform Postcard" bit caught my eye. Could this be an officially issued postcard from Denmark (or Sweden). Unfortunately the seller didn't provide an image of the other side, but I thought the "S40" might ring a bell with someone.
Thanks!
Lars
