Collection of Moroccan Postage Stamps and Postal Ephemera
This item is a collection of various postage stamps and postal ephemera from Morocco, likely dating from the mid-20th century. The collection includes a mix of cancelled and uncancelled stamps, some still attached to portions of envelopes or protective mounts. The stamps display a range of denominations, colors, and imagery, typical of Moroccan postal issues from that period. Several stamps feature architectural motifs, possibly depicting mosques or historic buildings, such as the blue 12 MAROC stamp on a beige mount and the dark blue 3 MAROC stamp. Other stamps show portraits of prominent figures, like the 0.25 MAROC and 0.50 MAROC stamps on a white envelope fragment, and another stamp with a male portrait on a brown envelope. The color palette across the stamps varies, including shades of red, pink, green, blue, brown, and black. Perforations are visible on most stamps, indicating standard postal issue. The condition varies, with some stamps showing clear cancellation marks, creases, or light wear from handling and removal from envelopes. The uncancelled stamps appear to be in better condition, some still retaining their original gum (though not directly observable). The postal ephemera includes fragments of envelopes with discernible postmarks, such as a circular 'FEZ' postmark and a partial 'CASABLANCA' postmark, along with handwritten addresses. The overall condition suggests a typical philatelic collection, with items in circulated to fine condition. The visual diversity indicates a collector's interest in a specific country's postal history.
