The French Colonies postage due are essentially identical to the France series other than being imperforate rather than perforated. Except for a few of the 1884 higher values, the CV of these makes them easy to collect. There are 3 main issues 1. 1884 14 all black 2. 1884 3 colour maroon 3. 1893 - 1908 9 various colours. Fournier was the main forger as might be expected but he was not alone. He produced large quantities of the 3 series along with many postmarks. For more on these forgeries, follow this link....

Oh I love these. I recently found some in an approvals book box I received. They are simple but still beautiful.
