France - 19th century – Large lot of 33 letters and folded items – Napoleon III

Important set of 33 letters, folded letters and French correspondences from the 19th century, mainly from the Second Empire period and the early Third Republic. The lot includes numerous Napoléon III and Cérès franks, with various numeral cancellations, date stamps, postmarks, commercial stamps and company chops. Several folded letters feature interesting stamps and cancellations, some destinations or markings being uncommon. A large portion of the letters also retain their original contents, with numerous invoices, commercial correspondence, bank documents and old letterheads, sometimes particularly decorative. Notably, there are: - trading houses and manufactories; - banks and credit institutions; - textile, metallurgical and mechanical industries; - regional commercial correspondences; - administrative and professional documents; - invoices and nineteenth-century letterheads; - numerous French destinations. This set is particularly interesting for the postal history collector, classical philately, old commercial documents and the economic history of the nineteenth century. Condition varies with age: folds, stains, foxing, small tears or possible defects. The photographs are an integral part of the description. Lot sold complete as presented.
