Lot Symbol CatNo. Lot Description CV or Estimate
212 og French Colonies and Offices valuable 19th century mint collection balance of over 1,100 different stamps in a single stockbook, with representation from almost all of the colonies, this collection is loaded with stamps cataloging $50.00-$350.00 apiece, the collection actually goes into the early part of the 20th century, with many of the "Peace and Commerce" definitive sets present, many of the stamps (particularly the higher cataloging surcharge issues) are very elusive and quite undervalued, as most dealer's stocks are notably void of these issues, the better items are almost all signed by the French experts, most are o.g., some small faults are present as expected on a collection this size, but the overall condition is far superior to what is normally encountered on these stamps; an ideal opportunity for someone wanting to start a serious collection of French Colonies or for a worldwide collector to fill in many very difficult spaces, as this is by far the most comprehensive collection of this area we have ever offered; the Yvert catalog value is approximately 350,000 French Francs (making the Scott catalog value about $35,000.00). Est. 7,500-10,000
