Default Spain~Franking stamps for Senators and deputies.



Another fine author..............

http://cjoint.com/data/fBp7aPU3bW.htm

Printed in Bradbury, Wilkinson & Co., London. Issued 4/2/1916

(450.000 sets of 8 stamps each); Spanish writer Miguel de Cervantes
Saavedra.

They commemorate his death's 3rd centennial. Issued as franking stamps for
national senators and deputies,

they were not in use, as both the Spanish Assemblies had currently the
benefit of no charge mailing.

Thanks to Antonio Gimeno
