Little bits of history through the post ….. a bit of international history and a French centenary

The continuing series on first day issues, and the history behind them.




Now, given it is New Year’s Day and in these quieter Covid times many will have lots more time to pursue fresh interests rather than launch into a detailed description of the history between these two first issue envelopes, I will leave that to you.

Which of course may be a clever way of avoiding the biz of doing the research……. I couldn’t possibly say.

Location; France
