I only collect Philippines during the period they were occupied by the US (as an extension of my American collection) but I'm finding these kind of interesting. I've seen them before of course but never so many at one time. These came from my estate auction purchase of a few weeks ago. Some of the overprints and cancels are interesting.
Top row is postal with hole punch (second in row appears to have a telegraph overprint)
I'm assuming the second row is also Philippines since they were all together, but I could be wrong. Could be Spanish. They are telegraph stamps (first one has postal overprint).
These and the other telegraph stamps which the coat of arms, don't appear in Scotts (that I can see)
Any further info would be appreciated.
Not sure if I'll hang on to these, but they're rather interesting for now.
