Parcel Stamps

1921

These stamps have a similar design as the parcel stamps issued for France. The inscription is in the same colour as the colour of the stamp
Three types exist:
'APPORT A LA GARE': 25 c blue on blue,
'VALEUR DECLAREE': 10 c black on yellow, 10 c black and 15 c black
'LIVRAISON PAR EXPRES': 25 c lilac, 25 c brown and 60 c brown.

Some of these stamps have overprint 'CONTROLE REPARTITEUR' (1921-1926). A surcharged stamp '65 c' on 60 c brown seems exists (1927). I've seen the 15 c printed tete-beche. These stamps were issued from 1899 to 1926.
