An impressive collection with many hundreds of stamps, as far as we can see all one of a kind, well filled with few empty spaces, housed in on specialized album pages and including interesting postal history from the 19th century onwards. Starting with the classics including used Napoleon 25cts 'B' under neck and imperfs to 80cts, Bordeaux Ceres heads to 80cts and 1870s perf Ceres heads to 80cts, then the ‘peace and commerce’ types to 5fr, Mersons complete to 20fr, 1926/27 orphans semi-postals complete used to 5fr+1fr, the Guynemer and Rouen air labels, thru 1937 Louvre winged victory complete used, the 1938 Ader 50fr mint, also non Scott listed WWII volunteer force stamps, the 1943 se-tenant strips inc. Petain birthday strip used, as well as the good post-war semi-postals series of 1954 complete used and 1955 complete mint, etc, etc. A strong collection needing only a little to complete with condition generally far better than normally encountered as well as real potential for discoveries.

2406   France, Modern Stamps and Covers Through To Euro Zone. A very extensive holding with the stamps housed in 2 large stockbooks of which 1 is absolutely bulging at the seams of material. Virtually everything mint and as far as we can see all in complete series. There is also a section of a few dozen booklets virtually all one of a kind for the 1970s onwards including definitives. Much of the commemoratives are either in strips or blocks of 4, as well as singles again with nothing in excess quantity. Good early paintings here also seen again in blocks of 4 - the best way to get a handle on this modern accumulation is by viewing it! Also accompanying the stamps are many 100s of very attractive covers through to euro zone, the overwhelming majority are the so called ‘silks’, again one of a kind through to special edition miniature sheets such as Mozart etc. No doubt all of this has a corresponding huge retail value potential as well. This is clearly ideal for a dealer looking to replenish modern stock inexpensively, a recommended viewing.

2407 /o   France, Specifically Non-Scott Listed Collection Including Essays, Airmails, Postal Forgeries, Etc. A seriously specialized selection of scarce and unusual Items, housed and written-up on Scott album pages. Starting with a rejected design of the 10c Ceres head, as well as accompanying explanation for its rejection through to a mint booklet pane for the Marshall Petain 1f50, dated 18.8.42 with interest in the  advertising on the selvage, then 1941  "Contre le Bolchevisme" airmails with 3 different examples of the set of 2 including missing overprints, the same again with selvage, as well as the "Front de l’Est Ostfront" overprint also present. Then there is the Czech volunteer 1917 labels in which the collector explains how "for all intents and purposes (these issues are) a semi postal", followed by an excellent study of the 1939-1942 London Propaganda forgeries. Issued to aid the French underground, these scarce postal forgeries are accompanied by the genuine issues, again the collector has approached this in a scholarly manner and highlights the subtle differences between the two. Next is a ‘newly discovered variety’ on #477 and #488, leading on to Guynemer semi-official (as listed in Maury) air post labels, mint  and with postmark, described as scarcer than #C1 and #C2, worth further investigation. Also seen, a study of the 1936 ‘Radiodiffusion’ block of four, as well as double surcharge (Yvert #34a),followed by, proofs, etc. A fascinating studious collection that makes an absorbing viewing. Although not all in chronological order, this well worth spending time on with specialist literature, as virtually every stamp could make an individual item in its own right.

2416 /o   French Colonies, Thousands of Stamps Mint and Used. Housed in a very well filled album, chaotically presented from the classics onwards. For example, in the classic colonial generic types there are some attractive four margined Ceres examples. Similarly with the 'peace and commerce' types with some superb used franc value noticed. In the 20th century, virtually every country represented yet almost consistently with 19th century interspersed, again in good condition. For example Reunion with 5c overprint on 30ct Napoleon with blue cds concentric circle type stuck in the middle of the page of various different of the 1930s stamps. Further countries seen include New Caledonia, Madagascar, Indo-China, Ivory Coast, Guadeloupe etc, even good French Polynesia with lots of extensive series from the 60s and 70s noticed. Virtually every country represented here, occasional blocks of 4 etc. Probably the region that is the strongest is French Africa - in any event, if you don't mind wading through chaos, you will enjoy this lot which also includes lots of good mint late 19th/ early 20th century post offices abroad to high values tucked away etc. A recommended viewing, a most enjoyable collection to study.

2417 /o   French Colonies, Old Time Collection. A crusty dusty old time collection of 1000s of stamps, virtually all one of a kind, housed in one well filled substantial volume, both mint and used. Somewhat chaotic in presentation with the vast majority housed ‘stamp on stamp’. Material ranges from the 19th century through to the 1950s with, as far as we can see, nothing later than that time. Apart from French Colony generic types and French Post Offices Abroad, we have noticed and in no particular order, Gabon Oubangui-Chari, French Guiana, Upper Volta, Martinique, Obock, French Establishments in Oceania, French Equatorial Africa, Tchad, St Pierre and Miquelon, etc, etc. Much of this is definitives from the 1910 to 1930 period, although we have noticed later 19th century ‘peace and commerce’ types, as well as back of the book, non-Scott listed. The French colonial holding ends with dated wing corner marginal blocks of 4 mint inc Madagascar, New Caledonia, etc. There is also considerable value in the non-French area inc from 19th century Germany to Third Reich, even US again from the 19th century onwards, the French part however is the best and a slow viewing will no doubt yield many more discoveries, a much recommended viewing.

A very handsome, primarily used oldtime collection, collected 70 years ago, including Saar, Danzig, Memel and Allenstein, written up on large individual pages with accompanying old fashioned ink descriptions for the various periods, territories and categories. The whole collection is completely uncataloged yet will be very considerable. Furthermore, virtually all the quality is far better than normally encountered with much superb – all the used of course being contemporaneous cancels. Starting with various shields from 1871 onwards, through to the pfennig and pfenniges complete, including different shades on the 50pf, then eagles complete, Reichspost to high values, followed by lots of Germanias through to inflation issues with good used here, as well as earlier ‘Deutsche Luftpost’ airmails complete series, listed in Michel etc. Then a good range of Weimar Republic through to Third Reich with Chicago flight 4rm zeppelin superb, 1931 zeppelins 1rm and 2rm pair, Wagners complete, and virtually all the other series complete to the 40pf purples etc, as well as the good horses in 1938 onwards. Then follows immense diversity of se-tenants with pages loaded to the gills with different types to be explored with Michel, followed by an interesting range of ‘perf-ins’, with definitely scarce types here especially in Third Reich. Also seen General Gouvernement occupation of Poland virtually complete, a good range of Allenstein, lots of Danzig used, again requiring a Michel, similarly with Memel and Saar with 100s of stamps to investigate with a specialized catalog, again all one of a kind.

A very interesting lot, hard to value as much of this is not seen on the market often, offered intact as received. Ideal for a collector or dealer looking for different material from the norm.
