Hello everybody.
I am new in this forum and I am new with post stamps.
I have few old postage stamps of France colonies. I am not good in working with Scott Stamp catalog and I didn't find some post stamps in it. Maybe somebody can help me to identify those stamps and say their value?
there is a photo of those stamps:




Thanks for help

top left:
Somali Coast 179

The next three down, along with the same overprint in the second column, are Tunisia semi-postals, B74-B77. The whole set might go for a dollar, or so.

top middle:

French Congo 43, a few dollars CV

I have to run out for a bit. If no one has finished up the postage dues and Dahomey, I'll look those up later.

The three postage due stamps (bottom left and bottom middle) are the first three of French West Africa, J1-J3.

Top right:
Ivory Coast 55 (looks like two of the same), around $2

Bottom right:
Dahomey 112, World's Fair, under $1

The 1939 World's Fair of Dahomey and Somali Coast are part of an omnibus set, so Scott doesn't picture them in the country listings. More than 20 French colonies issued this design, and you can find the picture and the list in the front of the Scott catalogue.
