BELGIAN CONGO POSTAL CARDS COLLECTION to 1919. Chronologically organised and for the most part identified by a collectors numbering system, in excellent quality virtually throughout with a variety of postmarks such as blue Banana, blue Boma, blue Matadi (no doubt black postmarks on all 3 as well), many others including Banoundu, Elisabethville, Kongolo, Leopoldville, Lisala, Lusambo, etc, etc, this is just to give a flavor of what is here. This collector has not only gone out of his way for a diverse range of postmarks, more importantly, he has systematically tried to achieve all one of a kind of every separate postal stationery issue that came out between this period to 1919, used – a tough task. Other good items include combinations of stamp and postal stationery to make the correct postal rates to various destinations. Also seen various o/ps on stationery, different strikes of the Boma carte incomplete, rectangular cancel on reply cards, the printed wavy line cancels over the inscriptions, the Congo Belge straight line overprints, additional definitives from the first issues of Belgian Congo and much more. This thick alum is also accompanied by the mint postal stationery equivalent, here with occasional minor duplication, including many different types, as well as errors such as S inverted, broken As and even items here that the collector has put a question mark to. All in all there are well over 300 items including Congo through to German occupations, etc., generally fresh and F-VF (see online scans)
