Prahanoaki -hang in there and contribute 50 posts.  Hope you continue, because it appears you have a lot to offer.  I'm glad this thread was revived as I have always had curiosity about Memel. Bee See - your maps are very nice indeed. |

I have a number of Memel stamps; I'll post them later in the week, if anyone's interested in viewing them.

If you are really interested in Memel, you may want to consider New Memel/Klaipeda Philatelic Handbook by Dr. John Neefus. I believe it is available as an e-book. I traded stamps with Dr. Neefus many years ago, and Memel and Danzig stamps were his passion. |

I just downloaded the Handbook so I could find out more about forged overprints of Memel stamps. The very first thing I read was WRONG. It says the genuine overprints are lithographed, but forgers would use typography. But I know (from the Michel Specialized) that the genuine overprints are typographed, not lithographed. I wonder how many other IMPORTANT details are also wrong in this Handbook. |

Hello,
Where can I find an explanation (reference) to identify a Typographed from Lithographed overprint ?
Thank you |
