Default El Salvador - info please

In an accumulation recently delivered by Santa Claus I found this El
Salvador issue. To me it appears to be a cut-square from some postal
stationary. It is inscribed as Republica del Salvador instead of the usual
Republica de El Salvador and the image is embossed - I attached an
over-equalized reproduction to make this clearer. Certainly nothing like it
in my Scott 05. Thanks in advance for any information.

Hi Tony,

Michel for Middle America, Salvador reports an 1889 issue with wrong
inscription:

"Union Postal Del Salvador", but all stamps since the beginning in 1867 show
the inscription "del Salvador" until 1890. So the described error concerns
not "del Salvador". Later, after 1890, the inscription is "de el Salvador".

Kind regards

Gerhard
