Very good set of pre-independence Algerian values. We start with 6 n°84 "10F vues d'Alger" and 1 n° 51 "1F vert-olive" variety "pli accordéon". On the next page we have a superb n°158c "1F sur 90c rouge en paire variété tenant à non surchargé", new** deluxe, Behr certificate, followed by the "unissued" 1942 n° 196A and 196B, 2 n° 196c and 2 n° 196D. Then we have n°353 a (last stamp of French Algeria), in a block of 4 imperforate mint ** deluxe and cdf. There's also a superb collective proof in its cardboard insert, of nos. 87 to 100 "centenaire de l'Algérie". After independence, there are two pages containing 13 no. 863A "Pour nos combattront chouhada" with all varieties (without overprints holding normal), offset overprints, Congo River and Islands holding normal... and several hundred "EA" overprints including large-panel booklets, dated corners...
