Title: 1923-1930 Swedish Stamps
Post by: CallieGray on March 27, 2013, 08:25:33 PM

Hello again!  I've been going through some old Swedish stuff from my heritage, and I found these old envelopes which still have the stamps on them! Unfortunately, I cannot read Swedish, (or the Swedish postal mark) and I have not had any luck when I searched around for these same stamps.  I'm not sure where the envelopes were sent from, so I'm sorry to say I can't give much of an indication as to who may have had them.  I believe the postal markings on them say '23' and the other says '30' so I'm guessing 1923 and 1930 because that was the time period which all this stuff is from.  If you have any idea the value or rarity of the stamps or find anything about them, I would be EXTREMELY grateful!  I'm so curious about things like this!  :D

Here is the first envelope with its two stamps:

And here is the second envelope with its one stamp.  This one appears to have the same person on it as the other green stamp from the other image.

1948

The stamp on the right was issued in 46.

Doubt they have much value

Alright, after doing some more research, the violet stamp on the left was issued in 1939, the green 'Tegner' one on the right was issued in 1946, and the green one on the bottom that is the 5 ore was issued in 1941.  They're worth about twice their face value.  Thank you for aiding in my search :)
