Uruguay Carrier Issue Scott 3 1r vermilion "El Sol de Mayo" Genuine vs Forgery? I have my suspicions, but they are not certain, so I am posting here for considered opinions. Thanks in advance!  Copy One  Copy Two |

falshung - what a great analysis with the material you have! Kudos to you!  I agree that copy one appears to be a Sperati. Too bad the apparent genuine (copy two) has that missing corner fault. I will reference (link) this thread for my Uruguay blog post with the discussion on the carrier issues. |

Here's a link to the early Suns and Diligencias of Uruguay as well as later issues. Its all in Spanish but easy enough to figure out. There are some very good photos for comparison to the many types within issues. filateliauruguaya.com/estudio_e.html |
