Thanks in advance,

PEDRO:

NUMBER ONE IS FROM Montenegro,
when it was occupied by Austria-Hungary. (1916-1918)

Montenegro was previously part of the Ottoman Empire (Turkey).

Austria occupied Montenegro in the early 1910s and
used Austrian Military stamps with an overprint for postage.


NUMBER TWO IS FROM the OTTOLMAN Empire and was
issued during the First World War.

I THINK FOR NUMBER THREE... THIS IS FROM INDONESIA.
Possibly a charity label.

I will check it out.

Hope this helps you.

Blair

Thank you very much Blair,

Where do collectors usually place stamps like the Montenegro one?
in a Montenegro section? in an Austria-Hungary empire section? austrian
stamps? Hunagrian stamps?

regards,
Pedro
