A nice one-page mint primer from the first four sets of this French African colony, now "Benin". Includes most of the "Navigation and Commerce" issue (includes both colours of the 50c and missing only #10) with a couple from the 1906 colonial issue and the 1912 overprints. The lot finishes with a hit or miss selection from the attractive "Oil Palm climber" set to 5 francs. All hinged or with gum disturbance. Use a cautious eye on some of the earlier material, but overall a very useful group. Estimate =
