Please Help Identify 23 Stamps

Hi, I hope this is the right section to ask for help in identifying. After going through tens of thousands of stamps I ended up with a few hundred I could not identify instantly, most of which have now been identified. However, 23 stamps remain. I hope some of you will be able to help me concluding this matter for me. Here are my guesses, but I would like to actually find them in my catalogues (I have SG and Scott):

1: Egypt military

2: Iran

3-8: Jordan, Palestine, Syria, Bahrain, Lybia, etc

9-11: Spain, Venezuela, other South America

12: Greece

13: Japan

14: Taiwan

15: Austrian offices in Turkey

16: GB

17-19: cutouts from postcards (all 3 cardboardy), 2x Germany, 1x Hungary

20-22: cinderellas

23: no idea, has gum on back

Thanks for any help!

Filipas Telegrafos ...... it's easy telegraph stamps of the Filipinas or Pilipinas , not in Scott catalogue


The one with 1 piaster overprint is a Österreiche Post in der Levante Scott 34, some stain on the stamp may look like varnish bars ( that will make it a 34a ) but I don't think they are varnish bars

11.- As Rod pointed, it's actually an Spanish 1934/37 charity stamp for a telegraph employees orphans home.

Here is a basic description of the stamp as unoverprinted base stamp.

Wow that was a lot of help, much more than I could've hoped, thank you all! A few thoughts/comments/questions.

I assume the Egypt militaries are neither in SG nor in Scott, right? And they represent no real value I guess as they must exist in great numbers.

The 1885 Turkey revenue is not in there either? However the 1916-18 Turkey is shown as worth a fiver, so even though I don't collect Turkey any more, I do have a couple pages that I kept, and added this one to them for its value. Nice find!

area66, I suppose by "complete" you meant as a whole postcard. By the way, in Hungary, you have postcards with a picture on, as you have nowadays, however the one in your picture is not a képeslap but a levelez#337;lap, is there not a distinction between the two in English to clarify what is meant? I have quite a bit of a Hungarian levelez#337;lap collection, not that I collect them, just stuck with me from old times.

And that Bahrain stamp is in Scott at $125, could that be? Is it counterfeited a lot, that particular stamp, to any of your knowledge? I put it in my Bahrain collection anyway, next to its worthless sibling.

Well that's it for now, still in the process of sorting this tidy bunch, will keep the thread posted. Thanks again!

edit: 4 stamps remain of uncertain background before I find them "homes": No2 Iran, Bon Voyage cinderella, and the 2 non-venezuelan spanish (?) telegraph stamps. They still need identifying, will keep searching for clues.

Hi , from my understanding Képeslap will be a traditional post card with a picture at the back and Levelez will be a card without picture, it give more space to write something

I am throwing away the 2 telegraph stamps, hogar and philippinas, also the indian airport fee one. Just 1 stamp remains I would like some help with, the iranian-looking one. Thank you.
