Summary

From the small death notice in the London Philatelist, March 1904:

M. Lataudrie was a keen collector and an able philatelist, as evidenced by his well-known work on Reprints, but it is probable that his name will always be most permanently associated with the possession of the two unused "Post Office" stamps of Mauritius, which were subsequently acquired by Mr. W. B. Avery.
