    1865/80: The attractive Collection of 127 registered and value covers, describing the rate changes after the Franco-Prussian war and the step-by-step decrease of the previously increased tariffs after France has joined the UPU (tariffs of September 1871, January 1876, May 1878, and January 1879). The collector made a point on showing the different types of registered and value letters (lettre recommandée, lettre chargée, lettre chargée avec valeur declarée) with different weight rates and different insured sums resulting in a collection containing nearly exclusively multicoloured frankings in a well above standard quality. Included are heavy-weighted registered letters, value letters with insured sums up to the maximum of 10'000 f., esoteric tariffs like registered printed matter, postcards, and commercial samples, mixed frankings between Napoleon, Siège, Cérès, and Sage, registered and value letters sent abroad, such as registered mail to POW in Germany 1871, from Mulhouse to Basel using border rate, to Egypt & India, and value letters to neighbouring countries. This is a very interesting and appealing collection worth to be inspected carefully.
