Fournier forgeries


Two images of cancels that Fournier used (from a Fournier Album), here with "PACHOI 3E/27 FEVR 03 CHINE" and "MONGTZEU 3E/27 FEVR 04 CHINE"

Forgeries have been made of these stamps and the overprints by Fournier (note that the perforation is imperfect, especially in the corners, the horizontal and vertical perforation does not match), for more information on these forgeries click here.
