The first postage stamps used in the Philippines were issued by Spanish colonial authorities in 1854. The first Spanish Philippine stamps do not bear the name of the country, but are identified through the portrait of the reigning monarch, in this case Isabella II in profile with a coronet. Denominations are 5 and 10 cuartos, 1 and 2 reales. These were handengraved on metal plates, and thus differ from each other in many minute details. One carries the word carros instead of carreos, a genuine error valued by stamp collectors. (http://www.filipinoheritage.com/history/stamps.htm)

Lou wrote: The Philippines Efimex'68/Olympics s/s was prepared for issue by the Mosden philatelic agency, who had entered into a contract to create stamps for the Philippines with an unauthorized Philippines postal official visiting NYC. Several issues were produced, but when they were sent to the Philippines, the stamps were not accepted and the contract was canceled. Mosden sued, but was unsuccessful in getting the issues recognized and used. However, they had sold the stamps to new issue dealers world-wide as official issues of the Philippines, and these are still on the market. They are unlisted by all the major catalogs--except Michel, who gave the issues special Roman numbering. The s/s was listed as Philippines Block III, and should be noted on the sites. Originally, I didn't include non-official issues in my SoS collection, but I added it many years later, when I expanded it to include a variety of "Cinderella" stamps. I liked the history of the issue and identifying the SoS was a fun challenge.

In line with the celebration of the 150th birth anniversary of our National Hero, Jose Rizal, the Philippine Postal Corporation is coming up with the Jose Rizal@150 stamps which will be issued on June 19, 2011. It is classified as a “Commemorative” kind of issue with a denomination of P 7.00 and a quantity of 70,000 pieces each for two se-tenant pairs. Also available is a souvenir sheet with a denomination of P 150.00 and a quantity of 6,000 pieces.

Moreover, Philpost launched an exhibit of stamps and other memorabilia dubbed as “ Rizaliana Collection on Stamps Exhibit by Jorge Cuyugan and Philatelic friends” last Monday, June 13 at the lobby of the historic Manila Central Post Office Building in Liwasang Bonifacio, Manila. The exhibit will run until the 30th of June.

The opening of the exhibit were attended by Commission on Information and Communications Technology (CICT) Secretary Ivan John E., former Senator Nikki Coseteng, NHCP representative Carminda Arevalo and Atty. Ramoncita Reyes, a member of Rizal Family.

On display are complete sets of Rizal stamps issued by PhilPost including winning artworks of the Jose Rizal stamp design contest conducted by the National Historical Commission of the Philippines (NHCP). Three Fine Arts students from the Far Eastern University (FEU) won the contest that aims to promote Rizal’s greatness and contribution to our nation.

The exhibit contains an almost complete collection of Rizalian stamps and other philatelic items limited to his self portrait, monuments and works from the very first issue of 1906 to the latest issues of Rizal stamps on June 19 which are presented in chronological order with introductory texts for each issue.

The exhibit will feature all original items never before featured or shown in any exhibits for viewers to fully appreciate. Visitors and students will also have the chance to view special related trivia’s, pictures and Rizalian collections.

The winning stamp designs which are included in the exhibit will be used by the Philippine Postal Corporation (PhilPost) in launching the special limited stamps of Rizal @ 150 on June 19, the national hero’s birth anniversary.

Marc Aran Reyes, Deanne Fernandez, and Lex Kempho Lacar won the student category in the contest.The young artists created the stamp designs based on their interpretation of Rizal’s ideals.

Fernandez’s stamp design uses the oft-used black and white drawing of Rizal, along with the cover of Rizal’s first novel “Noli Me Tangere.” An oil lamp, which was typically used as evening light, symbolized enlightenment and reason.

For Reyes, Rizal is seen with a white dove beside him, the dove symbolizing freedom from Spanish rule that the Laguna native wished for the Philippines.

The designs of Fernandez and Reyes will be used as stamps while Lacar’s design will be for the cachet of the First Day Cover Envelope that will be issued on June 19.

The Manila Central Post Office

Note from Lou: The Manila Central Post Office will celebrate its centenary in 2026, but it is being honored now, as the historic building suffered extensive damage in a major fire in March of this year, and the reproduced stamps show how it appeared thru the years. Restoration has just now begun, and for the second time, as the Post Office was heavily damaged during the Battle of Manila shortly before the end of WWII.

Note from Lou: The issues from 2014 and 2018 were printed with blank areas where submitted personal pictures could be added; in their place the two stamps have either a printed message (never actually used, and probably from an instruction sheet) or a limited edition publicity imprint.

Lou wrote: The special stamp produced by the PHL Post is 35 x 200 mm long (about 7.5"), and has set a new Guinness World record for the longest stamp. 

After the defeat of the Spanish military in 1898 by the U.S., the Filipino revolutionaries that had fought the Spanish government, expected independence for their country, but found they had just traded the Spanish for American rule. General Emilio Aguinaldo, a revolutionary leader, started a guerrilla war against the U. S. Army, and in the areas under his control set up a working government with a postal service. In late 1898 stamps were printed and used on mails, well before the actual republic was proclaimed by him in June 1899. Bitter fighting went on until 1901 when Aguinaldo was captured and executed.

The U. S. long term intention for the Philippines was to prepare it for independence, which interrupted by WWII, was finally achieved in 1946.

In the left and right ends of the long stamp are examples of the first four stamps, known as the Aguinaldos, issued by the first Filipino Republic. In the center are visual events in the history of the First Republic.

All in all, a very unusual, colorful and interesting SoS.

Thanks to Lou Guadagno
