Item Description

Hungary Scott 1N1-1N6,1N10-1N12 Unused HMOG - 1919 Arad Issue Forged Overprints - As noted in Scott, these issues were extensively forged. The 1N10 and 1N11 both have forged Henri Pape expertizer marks on their backs at their SE corners. From Filatelia regarding this mark: "Heinz Pape This mark must be looked upon with the greatest suspicion (Tyler: 95 % are forgeries). The mark was both abused and forged by Géza Tarján and used on huge volumes of his forged (overprints) stamps. The genuine mark is 1.25x2.5 mm, metal, well-shaped. This is the forged one, in the postage stamp's SE corner (credit: Dezsö Flasch). See [Flasch 14, 130]. Heinz Pape was the managing director of Tarján's stamp company's branches in Vienna and Hamburg. [Tyler p. 131]"
