Postage stamps and postal history of Fiume : ウィキペディア英語版 | Postage stamps and postal history of Fiume After World War I, the city of Fiume (now Rijeka, Croatia) was claimed by both the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes and Italy. While its status was unresolved, its postal system was operated by a variety of occupation forces and local governments. == Allied Occupation == Between 17 November 1918 and 12 September 1919.〔Michel Europa-Katalog, West, 1989-90, FIUME ''Interalliertes Besetzungsgebiet''.〕 The first postage stamps for Fiume were issued 1 December 1918. They were produced by overprinting "FIUME" on the contemporary stamps of Hungary. Both handstamping and printing presses were used. In January 1919, two postage due and a savings bank stamp were surcharged as well. These stamps even the most common values were extensively forged. Serious collectors will require close examination of all stamps. January also saw the first appearance of an issue produced specifically for Fiume. It consisted of 17 values, ranging from 2 centesimi to 10 corone, and used four designs: a figure representing "Italy", the town clock tower with an Italian flag hanging from it, an allegory of "Revolution", and a sailor raising the Italian flag. The first printings were inscribed just "FIUME", while in July they were redesigned with the inscription "POSTA FIUME", along with other minor changes. Meanwhile, a set of 12 semi-postal stamps was issued 18 May, commemorating the 200th day of peace since the end of the war. Later in 1919 the higher values were surcharged with lower values, and the semi-postals were overprinted "Valore globale" for use as regular stamps.
