Carroll Chase (17 September 1878 – 11 May 1960)[1] was an internationally recognized philatelic expert who specialized in classic stamps of the United States and France. In his effort to study classic French stamps, he traveled to France and remained there until 1941 when he returned to the United States.

The Chase prints show each stamp in the same size as the original stamp. Each image shows a complete pane of stamps and measures 11 x 14 inches.
