#gordonbennett

After the founding of the Automobile Club de France by the Count of Dion, Baron de Zuylen and James Gordon Bennett, the Gordon-Bennett Cup was created: the first edition took place in 1900 between Paris and Lyon. On July 5, 1905, France won the race on a Richard-Brasier, with Léon Théry as driver. It is the centenary of this victory that is evoked with the block issued by France in 2005. The first view shows you the finished product; the editing was done on semi-bold photo paper 280 g per m² with immediate drying. You can see in the right corner of the top the cup awarded to the winner. The block was glued thanks to a protective bag not to damage it, and fixed on the impression obtained. Everything will be put in a plastic bag, then in a rigid cardboard envelope to be sent to you by registered mail with delivery against signature. The second view represents the step just before printing with a marker to fix the block. The other views provide you with other viewing angles of the set. For any other information, whatever it is, I remain of course at your disposal. Some philatelic information: Sheetlet of nine stamps issued by France in 2005. Dimensions: 210 x 142 The stamps are serrated. These are heliogravures. For information, the 2018 quotation is 15 €; it is not this value that will be used in the price of this article because the quotations are overvalued and do not correspond to the value of the market. But here, it is not only a stamp that is proposed to you, but also an original and unique creation.
