This is a marvellous set of 11 poster stamps edited by Swiss firm Nestlé-Peter-Cailler-Kohler Chocolate. The set belongs to the series Sciences, Discoveries & Explorations edited in the middle 1950s and represents series n. 29 about ethnic group of Pigmies.
The collection is complete which add to the extreme difficulty of having all of them stay together after all this time. The stamps are made of thin paper with dimension 2.28 x 3.14 inches for the big one and 1.6 x 2.2 inches for the others.
The stamps are brand new as they still have their coating glue unused.
