Hi Jerome,
I don't have any of these cards, but I can add a little information. The cards are not from France, but from Belgium- issued by Victoria Chocolates. The set included at least sports stars and movie stars and possibly other celebrities and there were 2 albums issued to hold the cards. The text on the back indicates how to get the albums, the price and the number of chocolate bar wrappers a collector needed to send into Victoria at their address in Brussels. I think that you could also buy the album(s) straight out as well. The offer is in French at the top and I believe in Flemish (or Dutch) underneath. The set was edited (or produced) by Vedetten Parade (a magazine perhaps?) in Antwerp, and then issued by the candy company.
Let us know if you find out anything else. Hope this helps,
Jeff Alcorn
