French railway cancel for the run from La Ferte-Milon to Reims on a 1931 Colonial Exposition stamp:  Nicely centered, but exactly upside down. |

Been in a French colonial mood and have found some nice S-O-N or at least legible town cancels..I'll share a few as I get them scanned.  Nice S-o-N cancel from Djibouti in French Somaliland |

Another Thies, but not a train cancel:  and sticking with the French colonial theme, a Haiphong Tonkin on a dodgy looking little Indochina:  Off to Russia for a couple:   I'd be interested in any identifying information about these Russian cancels, especially the CDS. |

Some more French Colonials..including a mystery one Ouesso, on the border between Middle Congo and Cameroun. Less than a year after this stamp postmarked it would become part of German Kamerun as part of the deal that ended tensions over Morocco  |
