Thank you all for your efforts. All the information you've provided is quite
interesting to me, and I think that it will be useful to place it on my
webpages. I could never have found anything about it without your help and
that overprint would have remained as a mistery in my collection.
Thanks again for your help,
Pedro

Hola Pedro.
According to an entry on a Spanish philatelic forum dated 2007, the stamps
with the overprint "Málaga saluda al Conde Ciano, 17-7-39" were financed
and overprinted by Juan Marra "without official authorization". A later
entry about this Juan Marra sees him and his company OFILMA as "a
well-known dealer and forger of Civil War locals. He was particularly
known for his forgeries of the Granada overprints and the "Junta de
Defensa" issues".
Hope this helps.

Hello all,
Can somebody give me some information regarding the overprint in this
Spanish stamp? I couldn't find any in the Spanish Edifil stamp catalog,
perhaps someone can locate info about it in Scott.
