Spain / Melilla stamps...... Value sought...
 

Hello all,

I have the stamps from Melilla - Spain which I believe are Spanish Locals.
I've no idea as to the value of these and was wondering if anyone could push
me in the right direction. The pairs are all tete-beche. Picture of stamps

Here is a pre-printed envelope, franked with special cancellation listed on
Todo Colección for 5 euros. I can't find any singles for sale right now but
I have seen them. Try googling for "Ejército Expedicional de Melilla" maybe
you are luckier than I am.

Hi Mark!

I can't help you with the value - but it schould be military-stamps,
when I translate it correct. Ejercito = armed force expedicinario =
transport/forward.

They are Spanish Military Franchise stamps from 1893.

In 1893 the Rif berbers besieged Melilla, and 25,000 men
had to be dispatched against them.

Note the numbers in the corners of the stamps

There are numerous varieties.

Thanks Rodney for reminding us with this interesting map.

Nevertheless I would have appreciated one with the SNA border marked on
it ...

Sorry, I could not resist ;-)

I WAS GOING TO, but resisted at the last moment. Bah, humbug. I
missed an SNA opportunity again. Always a day late and a dollar
short. (Recent developments in monetary value states that we
Americans are at least .50 short as of now.)

SNA is in trouble,
Victor Manta is very rarely with us anymore,
too busy defending claims against SNA print, I'd wager,
and the No1 counter clerk has disappeared altogether
since he took broadband.
