Europe : CEPT - 03 "1957"

In 1957, 8 countries participated in the common issue of CEPT.
At that time, the European Commuinty for Carbon and Steel was still in controle of the mutual emission.

Belgium, Luxemburg, France, West Germany and (at that time, the independent) Saarland, chose agriculture as topic.

Switzerland chose industry :

The Netherlands and Italy preferred a neutral design with a star or flags :

Again here, Luxemburg (mint) is the most expensive set. The cancelled stamps I have, contains 2 CTO cancels (3 and 4 francs).
