oldbrooklynguy .......Very nice poster stamps but not part of the 'La Belle France' series. Morocco does feature in that series but all stamps are from Helio Vaugirard. Your stamps are from France but I was not able to find anything as yet about Helio Goutagny of Lyon. The poster stamps you have shown do have the same 5 colours as the Belle France series and there were many others besides in this era of beautiful French stamps and Cinderellas. Your 3 sets appear to be one of a longer series. You have sets 1,2 and 4 but a quick search reveals others up to at least No.18. So there's the challenge .....find the rest !! All Poster Stamps in the 'La Belle France' series are inscribed as such either at the top of the stamp or in the bottom margin. Thanks for showing these from Morocco. Londonbus1

Thanks for the kind response from vikingeck and thanks for your input Londonbus1. I have many more of these from the auction, about 40+ more sets. I googled them but can not find much info. I am trying to sell them and do not know their actual value so I took a guess. If anyone else has any ideas I would appreciate it. I am excited to be here with many more posts to come and I hope to be able to input my knowledge to help my fellow collectors going forward. I will post a few more sets in the next day or two once my company leaves to go home. Have agreat day. (or night)

Good day fellow members. Bought alot of these poster stamps at an auction. I cannot find anything specific about them except I know that they are very familiar to the La Belle France series. Are these the same type of series just renamed? They seem to be more scarce than the La Belle France. Any info is greatly appreciated. BTW this is my first post of many to come hopefully. I hope I did this correctly. Here are the pics. Thanks in advance. Nothing more to add re Identification, sorry. I have Numbers 14,15 and 16  |

The look and feel of these stamps is not that far off from Moroccan sets from the 1930s.

Good morning from the Free State of Florida. Thank you to all for your help. It is appreciated. I will continue research and hopefully someone else will have something to add. franoise, I hope I have a set or two of these in my purchase and will look in the next few days. And thank you especially to rod222 for the research on the photographer I have saved this info on my computer.
