re: Overprint E.A. on French stamp

Just after independence Algeria knowns a lack in stamps, so many french stamps were over printed EA. There is two kind of surcharge "hand surchage" and "typographic surcharge".
yours is typographic surcharge.
As per Yvert catalogue :

HAND OVERPRINT

TYPOGRAPHIC OVERPRINT
your stamp is typographic overprint.

There was six bureaux which overprinted these stamps, a specialized catalogue list the mostly verieties of this surcharge.

these stamps are also listed in Scott & Michel catalogue
