Thank you for viewing "An Introduction to Modern Proofs of the French Area". In the future look for more topics in the News Section.

Important: Due to the method of distribution of French Proofs, it is understandable that a smaller number than distributed really appears on the market. High government officials may not be conscious of their value and somtimes they are given to friends or relatives, collectors and non-collectors, while some will even be lost or destroyed. Some officials will not sell them for ethical reasons. Proofs are also kept in official archives and museums.

Note on printed quantities: We have made our best efforts to provide you with acurate figures. But often no official figures were released by the French Postal Administration and we had to rely on the opinions of highly-regarded specialistsin France and in the USA with years of experiance in the field of French Proofs.
