Hi all! I'm back again at least for a few days. I found this one in my grandfathers/fathers stamps. I didn't see it in my Scott catalogue and looked around online and couldn't find it anywhere. Please, if you have seen it would appreciate at least a catalogue # for it. I believe it is a revenue stamp(?), but thats all I have on it right now.
Interesting. Gebühren translates to "be due", so I'm thinking it's a tax stamp, but can't really say for sure, other than it's definitely a Revenue stamp.
....nice to hear from you again......hope it becomes a habit.
Nice stamp....it's not in Scott under Bavaria....but Scott does not list most worldwide revenues. You're going to need a German specialized catalog. There are a few German collectors here....maybe one will recognize this stamp.
Thanks nr, and I hope to be on more often too. crazycat is here visiting and says to say hello to everyone! I hope that someone will eventually come up with something on this stamp. I hate being stumped on a stamp.
Robin.... I sent a scan to my German buddy, and here is his reply. Please keep in mind that English is a second language for him.
Quote: Well,
its a tax stamp from old Bavaria, will be printed so betwheen 1870 and 1910, used also for "additional costs" in many many directions like fees for bureaucrathy + + +
Not listed in the Michel but often to find here, low price just used per pencil line.
hi bobgggg. Thanks for the info on the stamp. I may not be able to put a catalogue number with it but at least now I can put the info with in an album.
