Spain Stamps To Identify

Hello People
I found these among others, clueless, as usual...



Thank you

Bob

Hi Bob
Of the three on the right, top 1/4c is Scotts #174 from 1872, below that is, I think SC#261 1889-99 and on the right would be from 1902-22, but I don't have a number. I've got some 15c versions and they are SC 300. Hope that helps.

Thank you jamesw, sure it helps!

The stamp on the left looks like Scott #435, from 1930, but it doesn't look quite as crisp as the original stamp typically looks.

Scott notes that the set was reprinted, with blurred inks. I have the originals but no reprints, so I can't compare.
And I can't say what effect the photo quality has on my impressions.

Ooh, you have stumbled into a very complex area of philately.

The top two are not the same I don't think, one is perforated and one imperf.

There is also the possiblity of reprints which are worth substatially less than the original printing but are difficult to differentiate. I would also add that you are not likely to get anywhere close to catalog value if your stamp does not have four margins (full frame lines).

It is as you state blurred, must be a reprint, the one on the center upper side looks blurred as well, could be also a reprint?. I must say that all these stamps had been stored in an attic for at least 30 years, The reprints are worth to keep?
and the main question, do they have some value?.
My intention is not to keep the stamps guys, I will sell them all, railroading is a jealous God, it takes all my time and I need to spend time with the family as well.
What would be your advice?, so far I've sold a couple on ebay with good results. The most important thing is that I want to provide accurate and honest information on the bid/sale description. The ones that I can't find on Scott's or Ivert et Tellier catalogue I will ask on the forums. Hoping that you guys have some time at your disposal and the will to assist me.

Sincerely your friend

Bob

Have two stamps left to Identify, in my Spain Collection,

the Postcard PrePaye labels/stamps
do they attract a catalogue number in any Catalogues?
If so, year please.
I employ Stanley Gibbons Cats.

The stamp on the left is part of Spain SG MS2627 (1980)

Thanks.
I was way off the mark, thinking these were millenium stamps. :(
Perhaps the labels are a private postage,
from a firm similar to the likes of NZ.

Called a Private Postal Operator (grouped in with DHL and TNT) on Galeria ATM site.

with different varieties available.

On the site Ateene.net, http://www.ateeme.net/angles/aar_07unisello.htm , they mention in passing these stamps / labels.

Thanks Puzzler.
Nice catch.
