David: The Italian European Recovery stamps of 1949(you send me one a while ago) and the Italian & "Tobacco" stamps are probably the first closely followed by a ERP stamp from Germany in 1950. There is also a set of stam[s from Yugoslavia for the Donau commission from 1949-- however, it's a Sympathy issue and not a forerunner... All these stamps have 2 things in common: europe and uniting it and high cat. value!
Bobggg-- that's a long epistle you send; did I see that particular page in my Europa News magazine!??! No, you can't sell me a bridge!
