One of the main themes I am looking for : are foreign philatelic documents related to my country Algeria : (cancellations, stamps, etc...).
As a first step, I'd like to set up a virtual collection of these documents.
I know that the United States made some cancellations in connection with Algeria, notably during the Second World War and well before and after.
If anyone knows of a site or has visuals of these, I would be grateful if they could share them with me on this page or send them to me via private message.
With my thanks

I have a World War II topical collection, and in it, I have the postcard scanned below mailed from Algeria during the war. I have verified that APO 512 was used in Algiers, Algeria according to page 124 of this APO document:

I suggest you try the Jim Forte Postal History website for additional images of WW II mail from Algeria. I will leave the link below:
