I first met Freddie over forty years ago when I stared working for Pan American World Airways in New York. It was twenty-two year later, still with Pan Am, when I took a position as ramp operations trainer; and Freddie was assigned to teach me the tools of the trade. In 1989 while in Berlin for training, Freddie and I witnessed the abandoning of the guard towers along the Berlin Wall by the East Germans. We didn’t realize it then, but we were witnessing the beginning of the end of the Cold War. -

Philatelist USPS ¢::~077110
Q) WHOLE NUMBER 180 (Vol. 36, No.2) April 1980 ---------------------------- Franc!a~ Colonies "f£. Philatelist USPS ¢::~077110 ON THE USE OF THE 'Tn-IN-TRIANGLE MARK ON POSTAGE STAMPS Roberl G. Stone Introduction of the T Cachets The T-in-triangle mark of France and colonies to indicate postage is due was introduced in the early 1800s in France, but not extensively used until after GPU/UPU came in, and in the colonies it appeared around 1876. Ap parently, the UPU rules for marking covers at origin to show that additional postage is due at destination, on international mail, stimulated the French and colonial postal administrations to supply nearly all offices with the T-in triangle. At the same time they decided to make it the practice to apply the T also on domestic mail; which was probably seen to be desirable because the colonies as a group had adhered to the UPU separately from France, and mail between colonies and France had something of the character of international mail. The UPU had not yet recommended use of postage-due stamps as a means of collecting the due charges, and the early French postage-due stamps were limited to local domestic mail. In 1881 France finally issued dues stamps for general use on all types of insufficiently franked mail. Several colonies issued locally-printed dues stamps for domestic mail only, between 1876 and the 1880s. In 1884 the General Issues of dues for the colonies were first printed and made available to those colonies that requested them. From 1905 on some colonies were supplied definitive issues of due~ but the General Issues were still used someplaces until the 19208. -
