Question for Scott International Vol. 1 users
Hello Fellows,
Can anyone point out to me where the "Postal Tax Stamps" as pictured in Scott International Vol. 1 Spain are listed in the Scott catalog. There are face identical (different color) issues listed as Spain Sc #'s 371, 372 type A54, but no listing I can find for the postal tax stamps. It seems strange the Scott would picture something in their albums but neglect to provide a catalog listing for it. Anyone know of other examples? Maybe I'm missing a note somewhere, gone blind or had a brain fart...any ideas? Below is a link to a picture of the album page http://www.southslope.net/~paradimes/spaintax.jpg Thanks! Wolf-==- |

Question for Scott International Vol. 1 users
Hi Wolf
The image you posted seems to be an old Scott International Volume 1. I looked in a 2003 Scott and they are not listed as you have found. Since the time the pages were printed, Scott may have now found that the stamps were not valid, or used, as postal tax ( see note after 372 ) and decided to no longer list them. If you can find an old Scott catalog or a copy of the Edifil catalog you will probably find them listed. Yvert, Michel, Stanley Gibbons, or even a old Minkus, catalog might list them. It is possible that the Scott 1840-1940 world catalog might list them but I would not expect it to. Scott is famous for this type of reasoning. I collect Colombia and have the same problem so I have old Scott Catalogs (1926, 1940). Jerry B |

Nonetheless cool stamps and I'm glad I have them. My album was probably printed in the 60's or before. I wonder if anyone has the Michel, etc, listing and approx value? Not a big deal though as I don't plan on selling them. Thanks again! Wolf-==- |

Yes, I agree, cool stamps. Here is a commentary by Mr. Tony Vella, a catalogue reference, and Stanley Gibbons quote (1965) http://cjoint.com/data/dvaoZpJ1iI.htm HTH wrote in message ...

Wolf-==- Just to make note the values shown in scans from Tony are in pesetas, no longer used here in Spain. You can convert them to euros just dividing by 166.386. I think I have some of those stamps that appear as Barcelona. In my album. If anyone needs scans... Pedro |

Wolf-==- Hello, I can send you the "Homenaje al Ejército" 1939 stamp (unused) that I see you don't have in your album page so you can fill in that gap. If interested, write me privately with your address. regards, Pedro |
