Description
France Scott #s 128, 130 & 131, issued during World War I (1917–1918), are used semi-postal stamps produced to support war orphans and victims, a common and significant theme in French wartime philately.
These stamps belong to the well-known “Orphelins de la Guerre” (War Orphans) series and feature dramatic allegorical imagery symbolizing sacrifice, protection, and national resilience. The designs show classical figures sheltering or defending the vulnerable beneath the banner of POSTES, rendered in expressive engraved line work typical of early 20th-century French issues.
The group includes:
-
Scott #128 – 3 francs (violet)
-
Scott #130 – 5 francs (blue)
-
Scott #131 – 10 francs (green)
Each stamp bears a visible cancellation and shows solid overall presentation, making this a strong representative trio of France’s wartime charity issues.
A desirable grouping for collectors of French philately, World War I material, semi-postals, or humanitarian and relief themes.
