Indonesian pre-independence stamps
Do you know of any references for the local provisional "Blockade" issues of
Indonesia that were used intra-island just prior to those printed in Vienna, Austria. Also, do you know of any references for the Japanese and local overprinted stamps of Netherlands Indies from WWII and prior to independence being recognized? These issues are depicted and briefly footnoted in Michel. |

G'day Tom,
I would ask Hans at this site http://home.planet.nl/~hvschaik/ A very knowledgable Indonesian collector. "Tom Messner" wrote in message news:fSybk.257$qW.29@trndny03...

Indonesian pre-independence stamps
My Indonesian friends might argue about the 'pre-indepence':
according to the official version, Indonesia gained independence on the 17 August 1945.

Indonesian pre-independence stamps
I have accumulated about a dozen used intra-island provisionals. I have an
old magazine from the Indonesian postal museum, I believe, which pictures most of them, but I am enquiring as to whether or not there is a catalog or study available that accounts for the denominations of each set issued during that period. I also have no idea of scarcity or value. I have one used duplicate by design and denomination, but it has a slightly different shade. wrote in message ...

Indonesian pre-independence stamps
I googled "Prangko catalog" and found a few interesting sites,
especially http://www.vanstamp.com/. This site offers a downloadable catalog "Revolutionary Stamps of Indonesia 1945-1949"and also has ads for books on the Vienna issues ($40), Japanese Occupation issues ($50) and Indonesian revenues 1942-1949 ($27). All are in English. This also led me to google "Dai Nippon Society", and it turns out that this group not only published the first two books above but has also published "Catalogue of the Postage Stamps of the Republic of Indonesia 17 august 1945 - 27 december 1949" by Vosse. However, I was unable to find a web site or any other contact information for this group. The group apparently is in the Netherlands but publishes in English. Billig's Philatelic Handbook vol. 19 also contains a nearly contemporary (1947) handbook - "Dai Nippon in South East Asia" by Hedeman and Boekema. Seems quite comprehensive for such an old volume, but I'm sure that the newer work is probably better. Jay Carrigan change domain to mchsi www.jaypex.com In article 5Wxck.358$qW.82@trndny03, says...

I Just took out the 2008 Scott Catalog from the library and discovered that
they listed the Revolutionary Issues for the first time in that catalog. Now I need to find out more about the Japanese naval anchor overprints. The websites that have been recommended have helped somewhat. "Rein" wrote in message ...
