Tunisia is a bit mixed mint & used. Ubangi is all mint. Upper Senegal amd Niger is almost all mint as is Upper Volta. A very nice quality collection with few if any faults. We also note that all stamps are in mounts and spot checking there looks to be a good amount of never hinged. Many nearly complete countries. A perfect collection to breakdown into sets or countries for resale. 2012 Scott was $ 9439 and French Colonies have risen so a Scott value of $11,00 or more is reasonable today. There are no 19th century "dogs" in this clean collection. Mainly F-VF.
