Since SERVICO POSTAL AEREO is inscribed across the bottom of these, you'd think they were Brazilian airmails -- but not in my catalog! The top line reads SYNDICATO CONDOR, and the line across the globe says ORDEM E PROGRESSO. The condor part sounds curious, but I doubt it has anything to do with the "new world order" or Brazilian black ops. Help, anyone?  |

No, not a mentor, just reading the book " Stamp Collecting for Dummies " Here is a set that is currently listed on ebay. It is an overprint issue, read the sellers description. There is a second set listed ,the stamps you posted, with a starting bid of 25 bucks http://cgi.ebay.com/Brazil-Syndicat...CV_W0QQitemZ270238324650QQihZ017QQcategoryZ695QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1638Q2em118Q2el1247 |

Not too big of a mystery, just a case of out dated book. I know it's US stamp but what year were these used and who used them?  Thanks for the help. LeAnn |

LeAnn, this looks like Scott O143, the one-cent Official Mail stamp from 1989 for use by offices of the federal government for official business. |

These appear to be of some German origin and feature Schiller and Goethe, but THURINGEN isn't in my stamp finders. Anyone have knowledge about them?  Also have an impref.  |

Don't see them, Bob. Except for a couple sets of large pictorial issues,
everything in that section shows overprints of Jugoslav or Italian stamps. |
