Seeking a definite answer,
is this newspaper stamp a valid catalogue inclusion or not? Lots of assumptions and vague references, but can we nail it down? Opinions welcomed, but established references applauded. http://cjoint.com/data1/1dyjebkEsi8.htm |

According to "The stamps and posts of Albania and Epirus 1878 to 1945" by
John S Phipps, they are definitive stamps prepared for use but not issued. In more detail, these are stamps which the French commandant had ordered from the French government stamp printing works but which did not reach Shkoder until after the international occupation had ended. They consist fo 6 values with the effigy of Skenderbeg superimposed on an Albanian double eagle and of a postage due series of 4 values whith a view of the fortress of Shkoder. The book lists Brunel and Wallisch as references. Regards, Nick "rod222" wrote in news:WYCip.13847$MF5.11216 @viwinnwfe02.internal.bigpond.com: http://cjoint.com/data1/1dyjebkEsi8.htm |
