French Colonial Notes with Georges Bayle
For this month’s column, I have invited Georges Bayle, a French specialized collector of French Colonial bank notes, to share some of his thoughts on collecting. (Interview conducted and translated by Richard Taylor in France for “Behind the Bank Note”).
Georges Bayle has been collecting French colonial paper money for over almost 50 years. He is the author of the recent catalogue that appeared in 2018: Billets et Tickets (French colonial necessity/emergency notes and tickets). The introductions and indexes of his book are in English.
