Have been trying to track down a complete listing of stamps used by the Polish Army in Italy at the end of WWII

Unfortunately I cannot seem to locate them in my SG catalogues

Is anyone able to provide a list with values of these stamps and appropriate catalogue reference numbers?

All help greatly appreciated

I have a set and will scan them ,but I believe they are a fantsy issue .Never used by front line troops but a creation for the philatelic market,my first set was in approvals back in the 1950's and cost 15 cents.

Sassone list them.
They have experienced postal use.
Consider them "locals"
SCF have discussed them at length
try searching for "Polish Corps" perhaps.

In Fischer there is also airmail stamps (10A, 10B) and 3 souvenir sheets of the same type.

I have the Fischer catalogue 2006. The values for the set of 9 showed in the link is from $0.30 to $3.00 for mint, low to high denomination. For used you can triple the values.The airmail 10A is about $120 mint and $140 used. 10B is $40 and $50. The souvenir sheets worth a $100 mint and $115 used.

They are quite legitimate, and are listed in my Sassone Specialized catalog, along with many flyspeck and perf varieties. While the stamps themselves are cheap, some of the covers (if genuine) are big bucks.
