 Well pointed out, agreed. Yikes! It finally struck me, I can see the relevance finally.  Mercury is riding front, and right hand side of a locomotive "The weird blobs" are of a locomotive lantern. Part of the boiler, is behind Mercury's winged helmet. Partnering maybe LARUNDA, Mercury's consort. |

Likely 1924. I found the general elections for the 27th legislature (Kingdom of Italy) took place on 6 April 1924. Maybe 27a was a second round for undecided districts. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1924_...ral_electionThe Italian page identifies it as 27th legislature) Requires further research, but maybe this was either on the document inviting to vote, or applied to a document once voted. |

Centrally: 12 VII 10, 12 VII 19 or even 12 VII 1910? 12 VII 1919 Not sure whether this lines up with info provided but this part of the inscription is legible in below picture. Quote:
Marche da bollo del Regno d'Italia, sezione di destra (a sinistra c'č un altro fiscale con al centro la cifra del valore), della serie Industria Turistiche del 1921 da 20 centesimi verde oliva.
La filigrana č corona orizzontale e la dentellatura 14. https://culturafilatelica.blogspot....istiche.html |

So, tourist tax.
I am puzzled by the classification 'postal fiscal.' I doubt it had any postal use and would be a ' fiscal.' |

Definitely "1919" in the marginal markings, from you image Agree not postal or fiscal The good thing, we now have a catalogue reference "Unificato" I'd suggest perhaps a charity based promotional stamp. (But a Crown watermark?) may suggest otherwise. Unlisted in my 1.5" thick, Marche da Bolla D'Italia 1911-1943 catalogue (Vaccari)  |

As your site suggests: "hotel bills."
It, likely, is a stamp affixed to the hotel bill kept by the hotel showing the amount of tourist tax received. |
