Italy

1900/2000 (ca), "Moduli" (Forms, "franked forms"). The Italian Postal Administration has forms for any purpose. Italian collectors usual name these forms by the "order number", which is ususal part of the form as well as date and place of printing. This research collection follows this "natural" order and start with "AR" forms from the period 1900 to 1990. More unusual are for example the "Mod. 94" - used for postate dues of picture post cards or "Mod 162" which is used when postal workers had to pay fines for smaller misconducts of thier duty. Postal ID books with stamps paying the fees are seen occasionally, but one from 1911 is quite rare. In total a collection with many little gems and a treasure trove to find postal services, where stamps could be used beside letters, post cards and parcels. Over 100/120 mostly different forms - most of the form numbers have been used in the Italian Kingdom, the RSI period and later in the Republik - so an highly interesting collection for the advanced collector.
