Complete sheets of Vichy-era semi-postal stamps produced in Paris, but never distributed to the colonies (World War II made this impractical). Only known mint and listed begrudgingly in Scott, these are nonetheless very attractive sheets with interesting overprints and great lathework in the margins. There are 36 different sheets in this lot, all but two of them unfolded and all are Mint never hinged. Expect a little gum aging and a bit of perf separation, but overall a very tidy group for its age. Great for display or to break up for resale. Includes issues for Indo-China, Martinique, Cameroon, New Caledonia, Equatorial Africa, Reunion, Guinee, Togo, Guiana, Wallis & Futuna, Somalia, Sudan, Inini, Ivory Coast, etc. All arranged in a Lighthouse mint sheet file.
