That link to the Cinderella Reference Collection eliminates some of what I had to post. And of course, Spain was living a fairy tale. Have lots of Cindy's from there.
Will have to dig deeper for sleepers.
Anyone else have any? |

Here's a pair that appear to be of Italian origin. The say IMPOSTA SULL'ENTRATA at the top, and what probably translates to Industry & Commerce at the bottom. Anyone familiar with them?  |

Modern..I believe those are Italian revenue stamps. Will wait for a translation by someone as to what they say. |

Imposta sullentrata: (It.) income tax; inscription on Italian revenue stamps
And to think, Phil fired me as his stamp mentor |

OK, Looks like UOGAR TELEGRAFICO at the bottom, Donavito Voluntario at the top, but hard to make out the overprint. Could be IIOGAR TELEGRAFICO but that makes less sense.  |

Final answer on that? Does anyone agree or disagree with Mike on the Spanish origin of that telegraph stamp? |

East Saxony....#15N3, 15N6, 15N10...1945-46....20, 20, & 30 cents MNH.
The Telegrapgh Stamp is probably Spanish, but there's a chance it could be Portuguese. If I were betting, I'd say Spanish. |
