Sa vie, son œuvre philatélique ». Phila, édition spéciale du Monde des Philatélistes, 1988. Therefore no vivid dream of mine as I had feared after searching the Internet and made some abortive enquiries with collectors in France.

T...Hi Florian,<br>Great to talk to a fellow enthusiast! The trip to the French Post archives sounds fantastic. You said you got a list of all of Decaris' stamps for France and the colonies. I have a full list of his France stamps, but not the colonies. Is there any possibility at all that I could get a copy of the colony list from you? I can't tell you how much I'd appreciate it. As I am in the process of trying to create a full Decaris catalogue, similar to those done for Slania.<br>Cheers<br>MattStamp Crazy!https://www.blogger.com/profile/01345077149186253534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4991314307810638176.post-5368292279934657132016-05-12T00:32:35.637-07:002016-05-12T00:32:35.637-07:00Hello, Matt,Thanks a lot.

Having perceived the same in yours, I could not resist dropping you a note.<br>Certain Decaris stamps have been a passion of mine for a long time as well: his expressive faces, the vigour of his figures in motion, the poetry of his landscapes (Seine valley - Les Andelys) ...<br>Back in 2005, I searched for details in the reading room of Le Musée de La Poste, Paris (now closed for renovation and accessibility improvement). Found a list of his stamps for France and BEPTOM.<br>I am using my grandchilren's computer, that's why the profile I have selected. <br>Regards.

In answer to your question, I will add the 10f image to the bottom of the blog post tonight. I like your idea. Thanks for the input.<br>MattStamp Crazy!https://www.blogger.com/profile/01345077149186253534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4991314307810638176.post-63306969542402696982016-05-11T00:20:34.324-07:002016-05-11T00:20:34.324-07:00Matt,Yours is a great site.

Thanks.<br><br>Regards, <br><br>FlorianAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
