A few common French Precancels. I don't see listed in Scott. Do not see variety listed on the 10c La Sameuse Chalky Blue and Deep Blue. I scanned 500 stamps this morning, using Free "Stampfix" (Please consider support with a small donation) https://www.germanstamps.net/pmgs_stampfix/Look for : Short "T" in "Postes"    |

Rod - "Colonies" are imperforated. The main differentiation in the catalogue for the 10c blue is between "Type III" and "Type IV" (difference in the "c" of the denomination). Pics below. The "Hermione" sale Prussian blue is illustrated here - https://d3ums4016ncdkp.cloudfront.n...54/18054.pdf  |

Delighted to own this dirty, chomped piece of paper. 160 years old. Imagination suggests it was on correpondence lauding Charles Blondin crossing of the Niagara Falls on a tightrope for the first time. France Colonies.   Design clarification.  |
