Anniversary of Austrian Stamps
Inside #572:
On the occasion of the
100th anniversary of the Austrian stamp, the Postal and Telecommunications
Administration issued a brown-black commemorative stamp. The stamp shows the
double-headed eagle of the Austrian coat of arms on a shield, the imperial
crownabove it, a sprig of laurel to the left and a sprig of oak to the right.
The inscription at the top reads "K.K. Poststempel" (imperial-royal
postal stamp). The first Austrian stamps were made by Dr. Johann Jakob Herz
upon the instructions of the ImperialCouncil. In the Gazette for Posts, Railway
Companies and Telegraphs No. 25-28 issued by the Imperial-Royal Ministry of
Trade, Industry and Public Works, the regulations on postal rates and their
collection by means of stamps were published on April 27, 1850 and took effect
on June 1, 1850. The year when the regulation was published can be seen as the
birth of Austrian stamps and provided the occasion for issuing this jubilee
stamp. (www.post.at)

of Austrian stamps at home and abroad to be supported by the Federation of the

was to remind of the artistic significance of stamps that goes far beyond their
function in everyday use. While stamps had usually shown the portraits of
rulers, heraldic animals or ornamental numbers, i.e. realistic pictures, until
the turn of the century, Austrian stamps have also been decorated by artistic

The stamp shows the
proof printed during engraving work from the original plate of the ATS 3.50
stamp from the Hunting series of 1957, seen through a magnifying glass. The
engraver needs the proof in order to ascertain whether the desired colour tones
arealready achieved on the original printing plate. The importance of this
examination results from the fact that the engraver can only add to the lines
and dots. A reduction of the lines would impair printing accuracy and, thus,
the engraving's clarity. When scrutinising a print trough a magnifying glass,
as is shown by the present stamp, the beholder can easily see the purity of
line. It is up to the experience and considerations of the engraver that the
lines and dots are originally spaced in such a way that, after the engraving's
completion, the gradation of the small stamp corresponds to the original
prepared by the designer. (www.post.at)

With over 500,000
employees in 20 different sectors, the Austrian retail trade is continuously
growing as an important factor of the economy. The retail trade is becoming a
major factor in the creation of wealth in the economy as a whole, a result of
the change from an industrial to a service society. While the creation of
wealth used to be regarded as only the production of goods, we are aware today
that trade with its innovatory ideas makes products more valuable, thereby
creating substantial wealth.
The Austrian retail
trade, accounting for roughly 14% of the creation of wealth in the country, is
well above the European average.
While small retail
businesses, due to the need for large investments, can only contribute little
to the creation of wealth, the large retail chains account for over 20% of
turnover. A major factor is the mail-order trade, of which roughly 45% of
adults above the age of 15 - 3.5 million individuals - are customers.
There is a huge
difference between male and female customers, with 53% of all Austrian women
but only 37% of men buying from mail-order companies. (www.post.at)

of Philately Stamp with half pearls affixed Issue date 06 May 2009.
From May 6 to May 10,
2009, Essen (Germany) simultaneously hosted the International Philatelic Exhibition
(IBRA), the National Stamp Exhibition (NAPOSTA), and the 19th International
Stamp Fair. An Austrian Post issued p-stamp (Personalised
Stamp) issued on the occasion of philatelic exhibition
' IBRA - NAPOSTA ' 09 ' in Essen (Germany).
The p-stamp features a half pearl affixed on the stamp surrounded
by the other philatelic pearls or you could say legends on stamp collecting.
The legendary stamps featured on this stamp are:
The rare Mauritius Two
Pence Blue(1847) which was one of the star attraction
at the philatelic exhibition at Essen. According to the legend, Barnard
had engraved "Post Office" instead of "Post Paid" by
mistake. The latter appellation was to be seen on all
Mauritian stamps during almost twenty years. Much later
it was proved that "Post Office" was really the legal term used for
the Post in those days.
The "Mauritius Post Office" stamps have become rare gems of world
philately. They are in fact the first Mauritian stamps, among the very first in
the world. They are also among the rarest because only 500 of these stamps were printed for the Mauritian Post.
The Basel Dove Stamp The Basel Dove Stamp is one of the world’s first tricolor
postage stamp. The stamp was issued on July 1, 1845 by the
Canton of Basel (member state of the federal state of Switzerland). It
has a face value of 2 ½ rappen
and was the only stamp issued by Basel. It is the world’s first tricolor stamp
printed in black, crimson, and blue. The stamp was designed by Melchior Berri
which featured a white embossed dove carrying a letter in its beak, and
inscribed with “STADT POST BASEL”
The first stamp of
Saxony (Sachsen in German), issued in 1850, shown above, is one of the rarest
of classical European stamps. An estimated 3,000 to 4,000 copies are thought to exist today, and many of them are repaired.
This is also one of the most forged of the classical European stamps, most
notably by Fournier.

In more recent times,
the Festival has been dominated above all by two personalities: the conductor
Herbert van Karajan and the Belgian artistic director Gérard Mortier.
The Karajan age was characterised by the highest musical quality and the
involvement of international stars, which led to a certain artistic stagnation
towards the end of his era. It was then Mortier who opened up the Festival to
new movements and gave more importance to theatre again. Mortier’s successor
was Peter Ruzicka, who was followed in 2007 by the director Jürgen Flimm,
while the office of President has for years been held by Helga Rabl-Stadler. From
2011, Sven-Eric Bechtolf will be the new head of theatre at the Salzburg

90 years of the
Federation of Austrian Philatelist Societies
This year organised
philately in
It was on 9 March 1921
that representatives of 16 stamp collectors' clubs came together in
the once famous Dreierl restaurant in Vienna's first district in order
to found the Federation of Austrian Philatelist Societies, the VÖPh. There
is no doubt that this was a farsighted decision, since despite all the ravages
of the 20th century, the Federation with its currently 300 member societies
continues to flourish unabated. The VÖPh continues to perform its
functions – the broad-ranging promotion of philately and the safeguarding of
collectors interests – in today's very
changed conditions. Incidentally, the fact that the anniversary is not
celebrated on the precise date of foundation but rather six months later has a
certain tradition in the history of the Federation. Previous anniversaries were
also mostly celebrated a few months later, on the occasion of the annual
Federation conference. An interesting example of this was the fifth Austrian
Philatelists' Conference, as it was known then, which was held on 11
September
On the question of the WIPA: during its varied 90-year history, the Federation
of Austrian Philatelist Societies has organised numerous large-scale
presentations and displays with considerable success, above all the famous
"Vienna International Stamp Exhibition", which has always attracted
international attention; the last event was held only a few years ago in 2008.
The Federation is managed by an executive board, the president of which has
been Mag. Anton Tettinek, and his deputy Ing. Alfred Kunz since the last
election conference.
The motif of the new commemorative shows a design by Hannes Margreiter, a
graphic interpretation of the global message of stamps as carefully guarded by
the Federation of Austrian Philatelist Societies.

About Postage Stamps
From 1867
The year 1867 was a
significant interlude in the history of the Hapsburg monarchy. The
Austro-Hungarian Compromise converted the Austrian Empire into the dual
monarchy of Austria-Hungary, and that, of course, had an impact upon the postal
service. The postage stamp issue of 1867 reflects this circumstance.
Thanks to the
constitutional real union, Hungary was now an independent state with equal
rights, while the same monarch, Franz Joseph I, reigned as the Emperor of
Austria and the Apostolic King of Hungary. As a result, from 1st May 1867
onwards, Hungary had its own independent postal administration. However, the
postage stamp issue of 1867 is an identical issue which was used by both postal
administrations. The denomination “Kr” for Kreuzer or
Krajcczar was appropriate for both countries. This
postal series was issued on 1st June 1867 in denominations of 2, 3, 5, 10 and
15 “Kr.” for Hungary (which also included Transylvania). In the Austrian Empire
it only became available once all of the previous postage stamp series had been
used up. The 25 and 50 Kr. denominations were issued on 1st September 1867. The
stamps were valid in Hungary (“Transleithanien”)
until 31st July 1871 and in the Austrian “Cisleithanien”
until 31st October 1884.
As for the 1860 issue,
the postage stamps issued in 1867 once again showed the Emperor’s head turned
to the right, but now with clearly distinguishable facial features. The
depiction of the imperial bust is framed by a beaded circle, which is
surrounded by curved ornaments. The denomination is printed below the design.
The design for the 50 Kreuzer stamp differs
significantly from the other denominations.
The stamps were printed
on counter sheets of 100 stamps or 80 stamps in the case of the 50 Kreuzer stamp, both counter sheets bearing a watermark.
They are differen- tiated
by “coarse” or “fine” printing: until the end of 1874 a relatively thick, rough
paper was used, with the coarse character being produced during printing
through use of a textile underlay on the counter roller. From 1874 onwards a
thinner, smoother paper was used. In the case of the 5 Kreuzer
stamp there are also two different types: type II came into being from 1872
thanks to the use of a new die. Within types I and II a finer distinction is
also made between variants a and b, based on different print details.
“Fine printed” type II
stamps are thus only available in the Austrian issue, since the Hungarian
stamps had been in circulation since 1871. 1867 stamps which were used in
Hungary are especially popular with collectors due to the very short period for
which they were valid. Furthermore, in the case of the fine printed 1867
stamps, there are many variations in perforation.
The current block of
stamps from the “Classic Editions” series, a joint issue with Hungary, shows a
brown 50 Kreuzer stamp and a type I coarse printed 5 Kreuzer stamp in a reddish colour.

About Mercury
(1851-2022)
Mercurius, Mercury, Hermes: the
god of trade and messenger. His portrait graces the first newspaper stamps and
even in 2022 his symbolic power for philately and
postal services remains intact.
The famous "Mercures"
issued from 1851 to 1856 served as inspiration for the innovative philatelic
reinterpretation of the ancient messenger of the gods. In line with this
meaning, the world's first newspaper stamps served exclusively to pay for
newspaper shipping. 2022 marks yet another milestone
with this miniature sheet.
The sheet was designed by crypto artist ARI
PRATAMA and the publisher ENCODE Graphics. Founded
in 2021 by Austrian crypto artist PR1MAL CYPHER, it is the first book and art
publisher to combine the digital world of NFTs (Non Fungible Tokens) and the
crypto scene with physical comics. The
results of this connection, also coveted for their digital uniqueness, are called "phygitals".
With the new Crypto stamp Art, world-famous
crypto artists will be integrated into the world of philately in the near
future. For collectors, this will
create attractive opportunities to find and appreciate their treasures in both
worlds.

I adding #P4 here because both of them are wonderful
stamps. But, I stick to my approach, that when there
is no clear presentation of a particular stamp, I present the first stamp from
the series.

Lou wrote: The new Austria SoS has a face cost of € 6,68-- about $7.50. One third of that is for a charity.
The Austria post rate for ordinary letter or postcard, domestic and EU, is €1,00, the rest of the world is € 1,80. What will this
stamp be for--heavy packages? insured mail? to bilk collectors?
