Who know. Why the plans and football are found together on Italian stamps? I bear in mind this stamp on 75 cent. Thanks.

I would say propaganda..the Italians are masters at football(soccer) and Mussolini was probably showing off his airforce !!

Perhaps, but a simpler explanation is that the ones with planes on them are airmail stamps from the May 1934 issue commemorating the 2nd World Soccer Championships (Scott C62-C65).

Yup, the reference "Posta Aerea".

An interesting way to commemorate the World Cup.

Interestingly, the CV of a used set of these stamps is much higher than an unused set (Scott 2009 CV for the set $126 OGph, $300 NH, $701.50 used).

Every stamp has to do with soccer too. 10+5 L stadium Bologna, 5+2.5 L stadium Rome, 50 c stadium Torino. And what has to do Garibaldi with an airplane? See 1932, 50 comm. Garibaldi 4.5+1.5 L (Mi. nr. 407).
