Update : GM= Max Graber & sons, Iron & Bldg Materials Bratislava 1929-1944 (Yet my perfins GM have a different puncture count, and lie on 1920 &1926 issued stamps)
- For GM perfin see 50 YEARS OF PERFINS USE ON THE CZECH AND SLOVAK TERRITORY (1898-1948) on http://www.exponet.info/exhibit.php...D=891&lng=EN p. 8: M.G., owner unknown , Praha 1905 - 1925 p. 28: GM, Gebruder Mahla, sheet containers and safes, Smržovka 1919 - 1937 (your item) p. 44: G.M., Graber Max & Sons, building materials and iron, Bratislava 1922 - 1934 (also listed on p. 18 of PERFINS ON CZECHOSLOVAK STAMPS 1918-1939, 1945-1954 on http://www.exponet.info/exhibit.php...D=892&lng=EN ) p. 73: MG, Max Graber & Sons Ltd., iron and building materials, Bratislava 1924 - 1944
Perfin .G.V. reads C.G.V. in full and appears on p. 57 (or p. 31 of the latter exhibit). It is reported to have been used by C.G. Vogel, printing works and publishing house, Aš 1922, while the stamp seems to date from at least 1926. An image of its front might help.
Owing to postage due stamps shortage, some Czechoslovakian post offices in 1918 - 1920 overprinted by hand or inscribed in crayon or in ink ordinary postage stamps with T for TAXE, P for PORTO, or D for DOPLATNÉ. If on cover, which of course has to be the genuine article, such provisional postage due stamps are sought by collectors.
As for perfins, I am sorry to say I am unable to find time to search all of the exhibits concerned with perfins, such as PERFINS FROM THE TERRITORY OF CZECHOSLOVAKIA 1881-1949 on http://www.exponet.info/exhibit.php...D=897&lng=EN .
A set of stamps & mini-sheet issued 29 Aug 1945. Gibbons has both listed as First Anniv of Slovak Rising, 443/447 & MS447a,
Michel nos. are 455/9 for the stamps (imperfs are known, mucho dollars here). The sheet is listed as A455/A459, Block7, no gum, 162,000 blocks issued, but states it as a charity sheet for war widows & orphans.
2013 Michel catalogues mint stamps @1.50 euros/set, & sheet @40 euros.
Thank you YeaPolska, I have become so dependent on Scott, it didn't occur to me to seek Gibbons. The sheet was still not listed in my ageing 1965 edition.
For the record the sheet is on thick paper, 0.007"
Printed by NEOGRAFIA which has grown, and been successful, see here, with Music from a Coldplay takeoff "Viva la Vida" celebrate life.

Hi istamp. What you show above, on the green stamp is most likely set-off. A still wet sheet os stamps was put on top of anothr which caused the mirror image on the back. Yours is really a beaut!
thank you petert4522 I have old catalog which doesn't mention similar case so I just wondered if recent catalog mentions such thing well generally I am not aware that catalogs mention such cases or do they if they do could you please share example with me thanks
one more thing just to have my question more clear the mirrored 50h image is being either the front/back side of the 80h stamp which is shown in my post thanks
The building near the Zionian Neologos Synagogue was adjoined to the Jewish People's School as a purpose-built building for the gym and club room Makabi . Makabi was an association of Jewish sports and sports clubs during the first Czechoslovak Republic . Its role was to strengthen the members' physical fitness , build halls and gymnastics , organize competitions and the like. In Žilina they founded the company in 1931 and ceased in December 1938 . His chairman was JUDr. Alexander Márton .
Makabi had three departments : 1) The gymnast, whose members trained in the Tyrš system of exercises, first at the Jewish folk school courtyard and in the gymnasium of the real grammar school on Hurbanova Street, for which Jewish entrepreneurs bought a lot of physical tools. In exercises they continued in their own gym in Makabi building in 1937. 2) Sports , which had light-athletic, winter, hiking, swimming and table-tennis departments. After completing the gymnasium in 1937, he had his spaces in the club rooms in the Makabi building.
