France and Colonies

Catch-all of various auction, bidboard and dealer purchases that were acquired for a "rainy day" that never came. France includes some nice material from the 1930’s-1940’s including two gutter pairs from the 1937 PEXIP show souvenir sheets (no gum), better semi-postals, some earlier material from the 19th century and complete booklets from the 1960’s-1980’s. From the Colonies, there is strength in St.Pierre & Miquelon and some notable Guadeloupe, Algeria, an intriguing mounted collection of French Guiana and a mixed group of mostly African and middle-east French Territories. For the record there is a group of four "OF Castellorizo" overprints that would have significant catalogue value if genuine (but they appear to be fakes). Estimate =
