France 1917 - No. 155 of the series issued 'For the benefit of orphans' in 1917 - Y&T 155 *

The first series of orphans is considered the first French commemorative series. Its face value and the significant surcharges applied at the time limited the number of buyers, which makes it rare today.
The proposed stamp is the rarest in the series. It features the 5 francs + 5 francs depicting Rude's La Marseillaise in black and blue tones.
The case is in good condition, with a first hinge. It features very good centering, which gives it a notable added value.
The signature is signed (Calves).
For the sake of accuracy and transparency, I note that this stamp has a slight rectilinear mark on the back (not a fold, no marks on the front). The attached photos will allow you to have an objective opinion on the excellent condition of this stamp.

The document will be sent under enhanced protection and franked (without drift) by registered mail in accordance with La Poste rates (Weight < 100 g.).
