Help Needed For These French Stamps

Here are a few odd and ends I found while sorting through some French stamps.

First is what seems to be a cut square from a postal card similar to the 1991 self adhesive stamp Scott #2204. It is on thick white paper. I can't find any reference in my Y&T catalogue. Any ides?



Next is a copy of Scott #542 with a TROYES diagonal cancellation. I have never encountered this type of cancel; is it something special??



Last but not least is this small medallion fiscal stamp. I am curious about the D.A imprinted on the stamp; can anyone shed some light on it's meaning?

D.A : Distributeur Auxiliaire (tobacco sellers,..)

Troyes is a small town in France - maybe a parcel postr cancel?

Bravo Vayolene, nicely solved.

Agree,
first item mutilated stationery fragment.

"Troyes" straightline cancel on cover

(not mine)

Thank you vayolene for the D.A information and nice image of TROYES cancel on cover. I found a similar cancel on a Finnish stamp and the suggestion was that it also was a cancel for printed matter,

Rod22 - yes a mutilated corner cut from what seems to be a postal card. Problem is I can't find any reference to the piece in it's entirety. Any ideas??

higgins and gage?

Sorry, no go here either,
I usually search ebay for France Sc#2204 Postcard..nil

or Google Marianne Briat stationery,
I do not have a catalogue for French Stationery.
