Commentary


Contrairement à ce qu'indique le Docteur Kolksy dans son ouvrage (p.243) le filigrane de cet exemplaire est normal et non inversé. (ex Billets29, ex Collection Amon Carter). En fait, la série Banque de l'Indochine est dans ce sens - avec raie à droite - la série Trésor Public est avec raie à gauche (P.28).
Contrary to what Dr. Kolksy states in his work (p. 243), the watermark on this example is normal and not reversed. (ex Billets29, ex Amon Carter Collection). In fact, the Banque de l'Indochine series is oriented this way—with the line on the right—while the Trésor Public series is oriented with the line on the left (p. 28).

Historical background


DJIBOUTI

The opening of the Suez Canal gave the Gulf of Aden an unequaled strategic importance at the exit from the Red Sea. The English controlled Aden, the French bought Obock in 1862 while Marseille shipowners settled in Tadjoura. In 1884, a French protectorate was passed with the local potentates. The same was done with the Somali chiefs. Colonel Lagarde founded Djibouti in 1888. The capital was transferred in 1891 from Obock to Djibouti. Having colony status in 1894, the region took the name of Côte Française des Somalis in 1896.
