Well, the Edifil Spanish catalog defines it literally as a "private issue".
I think that what they try to say is that it was intended for use only
inside the Congress/Senate and not by the rest of citizens in the postal
offices. Not available to general public. Correct me if I'm mistaken.

Very nice Pedro,
they are a particularly well designed set.
Good luck with the last one in the set.

I do not understand "private issue" there must be another philatelic
description
other than this surely.
"officials"?

Hello,

As Blair correctly points out they were a private issue for use in the
Congress and Senate.

Here are mine. I have one left to complete the set.

I dug it out a phossick box this evening Blair,
I have never seen one before,
The response was from here (with two others in the set)

I took it as "unissued"
but welcome any other advice.


"Blair"
Is this a free frank label for deputies' mail
or just a commemorative sticker?
