In the beginning I tough that the error is: MAYOR (Spanish) mean bigger. But there said Puente "Mayol" like Chinese accent.
Doing some research in history I learned that; The real intention in named the bridge was The last name of NARCISO "MALLOL", who start the plans of the construction of that bridge.
In other words thinking of a NON ERROR I found a different Error. MAYOL - MALLOL (last name).
Thank a lot for any comments.

redwoodrandy; My last name is ARR-I-AGA; But there's also other Families with ARR-E-AGA. One single letter change the origin of your family ancestors. Family Ma-y-ol, and family Ma-ll-ol are two different families.

I wonder if this error is only in the mail stamps? O, the name of the Bridge itself has the error?
Thank a lot about that information of the VERRAZANO BRIDGE, new one for me.

Carlos, my Spanish is awful, but when I look up "Puente Mayol" it comes up as a landmark in the Honduran city of Tegucigalpa. Also, that is the name of an overlook rather than the bridge. Please letr me know if that is correct?

PETER. I'm from Guatemala. I don't know too much about Honduras. The only other country I spend 2 years was Costa Rica. And also I spend 6 months in El Salvador. both of them have beautiful postage. Was funny for me to read MAYOL in that stamp because it's exactly the way the chines people make to sound the word MAYOR. Thank for comment in my post.
