Reunion ~ID by
rodney
Just checking if I have a catalogue error/s
10c should be on blue?
4c is red on green?
Perhaps these stamps were reprinted?

The Postcard is from Mr Pierre Courtiade
sent to me when he was there in 2002 :)

I am assuming this is another cancellation attributed to the domestic money order?
The 25 bani is the correct charge for this time.
May I have confirmation please?

50 years ago, yet the scene looks so contemporary.
Is this perhaps the first bikini on a stamp?
