Just found these beauties from Spain - not in my catalogs - they are apparently Charity labels (Cinderellas) printed for the city of Zaragoza 1936-39 during the civil war to raise funds for the Seminary - Post Edited and Telegraphos stamps taken out

Just got about 10 sheets of these in an auction. Thank you for letting me know they are Cinderellas. We will see if there is a market for them

Not cinderellas. Just bogus stamps made to steal money from naive collectors. Not worth even the paper on which they're printed. I hope that you got them for peanuts.

sudbury12000 An internet search of Zaragoza stamps will show that there is an abundance of sellers for these and numerous other Zaragoza stamps. What appears scarce is any substantial information about their creation. One could do a lot worse with illegals from Africa and some Caribbean islands if one wanted to start from scratch spending little scratch. EDIT: However exercise caution when buying, look before you leap for any high-cost items.

sudbury12000Many thanks for posting those ! I have been wanting a reference to all the bogus Pmks used on these sheets. Fabulous. These are listed in the 1944 Galvez catalogue , Page 392

rod222 pm your address, and this sheet is yours. I have a few of them! Hopefully the rest sell. cursus these were part of a huge lot I bought. Pretty satisfied with the lots so far. I was just curious if these held any interest. The whole sheets will be on eBay soon at a buck!

sudbury12000 , In reference to your above sheets, I found this info in the Bill Hornadge Cinderellas catalogue. Not sure if this has a great value, but they are listed.
