Those French EUROPA stamps issued in 1961 were privately (and illegally) over-printed “Algerie Française 13 Mai 1958” between December 1961 and January 1962 in the region of Oran. Both 1961 overprint stamps are mint and also on this page is a rare Philatelic cover with EA usage of the o,25 centime stamp sent from Kantara to Tlemcen (overprinted in July 1962).
