Hi Barbara,

Just pick up your favourite stamp catalog (Scott, Michel, SG, Yvert etc) and look under France around 1920’s. They should be there… As there are different types (and subtypes, variations etc) of these stamps, telling anything specific with these details is impossible. As a generalization, all the basic sower stamps are of low (=minimun) value in used condition; mint stamps are completely different thing.

Thanks AdA…

The catalogue value for single stamp was pretty much what I figured… Michel doesn’t sadly list the advert booklets or singles at all. My French Yvert&Tellier does have them, but because it’s very ancient (even prehistoric) I don’t trust the price/value information at all…
