Default FA: Rare Philatelic Art Portfolios - Birds, Fish, Egypt, etc.

To any bibliophile with philatelic tendencies who might be interested, these
five unusual volumes are currently listed separately on eBay (auctions end
Sunday, 6/20).

"IRIS" - Recueils philatéliques d'Art, d'Histoire et de Science. Paris:
Hélio-Vaugirard, 1948-1955. The subjects of the individual volumes are GOYA,
BIRDS, ANCIENT EGYPT, ARGENTINA, and FISH.

Large (13"x10") chemised and slipcased portfolios published by the stamp
engravers Helio-Vaurigard. Each is limited to 500 copies and contains 8-12
loose plates (photographs, reproductions, and original artwork, some pochoir)
in color and black&white depicting the subject of a stamp, which is also
reproduced (actual size, in heliogravure) on the plate. Each volume also
contains 8-12 twelve épreuves de luxes or "deluxe sheets," engraved imperforate
reproductions of the stamps featured on the plates.
Quite uncommon items...
