According to Le Monde, the Behr auction house is organizing an auction in Paris dedicated to classic stamps, with closing scheduled for October 1st. This sale highlights iconic pieces of French and British philately.

According to the information reported, bids reaching six figures are expected for some of the most sought-after stamps offered in this sale. These amounts would concern pieces considered rare among the classics of both countries.

Le Monde also notes that correspondence dating from the Napoleonic era, also presented in this sale, should record prices significantly more modest than the classic stamps mentioned previously.
