Fiume. */¤. Magnificent stamp and postal history collection with collateral, as well as errors well written up in a substantial album. Beginning with 19th century, there are Hungarian city photocards through to early 20th century coloured and military, followed by extensive Austria 1850 imperfs from #1 onwards, all with Fiume CDS and various different types through 1853/59/60/61. Then Hungary used in Fiume with 1888/89 numeral types to 3 ft, further 19th century with covers incl. triple combination, on to early 20th century feldpost and the 1918 overprints set complete mint (occasional toning noticed on reverse), followed by the set again complete used through to the 1918 defins and comprehensive postage dues incl. Italian City under National Council, postage dues on cover, etc. Further defins incl. multiples, different papers, virtually everything here incl. state of Quarnero overprints, many different types, errors, through to an extensive range of reference well written up and researched, invaluable for the specialist for comparison purposes. So much more here than first meets the eye incl. the constitution, free city with and without overprints, etc, ending with a most unusual range of early serrated letter seals Fiume, military through to 1945 Rijekaan and occupation incl. inverted overprint, as well as Third Reich used in Fiume, etc. Outstanding in scope and a highly recommended viewing.
