La Calotte

La Calotte is a French illustrated satirical anticlerical weekly publication, which appeared in France from 1906 to 1912.

[3] It was founded in Paris by Louis Grenêche, a publisher, in the context of the 1905 French law on the Separation of the Churches and the State, during the troubles caused by the Inventories.

La Calotte appeared every week on 16 pages, half of which was illustrated with anti-clerical satirical drawings.

In its first issue of 14 September 1906, the editorial explains:You can see, dear readers, the fighting character of La Calotte.

If you share our opinion, dear readers, insist on kiosks and newsagents, which are our only sellers, so that they display us in good place.

"The Authentic Relics" - La Calotte mocks the supposed relics of Saint Blaise , scattered in various locations, of which several full-fledged skeletons could have been constructed.
