FINNLAND: the 1901/03russian designs finish values set!

Hi!!

I have just bought a nice set of Finnish stamps 1901/03 Russian design
with Finnish value 2, 5, 10, 20 penni 1, 10 Mark and I try to find if
the stamps are from first or second tempory issue or first or second
letterpress issue!! I have FACIT 2008 (and naturally Yvert but it
doesn't help me because it doesn't give all those details) but I don't
understand all what they write and I find they don't give enough
pictures!!

I have no more friend in this country to ask now more informations, the
last one stopped to collect stamps end of last year!!

Have some one more informations about this issue, on the Net or with
scans of other catalog or books? I understand also German but not the
Finnish language (I am sorry)!

Have a nice week end, hope better then in France where it is raining on
most part of the country!

In a few hours I leave for a vacation, and I don't have
time right now to prepare a decent answer. I also won't
have newsgroup access while I'm gone.

If you don't get an answer in the next 10 days or so,
send me an email. (Hint: go to my web site and use the
address given there.)

One place where you could search for information is

Since you read German, have you tried Michel?

You have time to answer, for stamps it is always necessary to patient;
I'll write you end of July or beginning of August certainly!

Here is the relevant page from SG Part 11: http://cjoint.com/?hmsrnCIKdT
You will see that they say that the easiest way to distinguish between
the two sets is that the earlier one is on chalky paper. They don't
mention "temporary" and "letterpress" issues, though, so sorry if it
doesn't help.
