Europe/Other : Some catalog translation help?

Author	Postings
Jeredutt3 30 Aug 2018 01:02:08am	Hi, Reviewing my Maury catalog of French colonies ( Dahomey specifically) for varieties I came across a couple odd translations with Google Translate... any help on what these actually mean would be helpful... piquage a cheval = horse stitching ? piquage oblique par pliage = oblique stitching by folding ? Thanks in advance, Jere Login to Like this post

Are there any grave or acute accents missing from your post? Login to Like this post "www.globalphilately.com" www.globalphilately.com
