 IN MEMORIAM

This edition of the bibliography is dedicated to the memory of

DR. MIGUEL ANGEL CHIONG

who died on December 23, 1995

He contributed his own bibliographic research and library materials

for this bibliography and provided invaluable suggestions for its improvement.
INTRODUCTION
Introduction

This bibliography is based on the excellent pioneer bibliography of Cuban philatelic literature by Dr. José A.
Ferrer-Monge of Mayagüez, Puerto Rico, published in two parts in the June and September 1978 issues of the
Philatelic Literature Review followed by an addendum published later in the same journal in the first quarter of
1984. Dr. Ferrer-Monge's bibliography provided the serious student of Cuban philately with an invaluable key to
the vast store of existing literature on Cuban philately. My long-time interests in Cuban philately welcomed Dr.
Ferrer-Monge's bibliography with enthusiasm.

I was introduced to Dr. Ferrer-Monge's bibliography by Mr. Mark R. Tyx, another devotee of Cuban philately and
its literature. Shortly thereafter, I started accumulating copies of as many items referenced in the bibliography as I
could obtain. I was greatly helped in this endeavour by Mr. Tyx and by Dr. Miguel A. Chiong, another fervent
Cuban philatelist and bibliographer. Both provided me with numerous items of Cuban philatelic literature--I
suddenly became a collector of Cuban philatelic literature as well!

A collector by nature, I was immediately faced with the problem of organizing and keeping a record of the vast
amount of material on Cuban philately published after Dr. Ferrer-Monge's bibliography came to light.
Fortunately, my professional expertise in the field of computers quickly came to the rescue: I decided to develop
the biblio-graphy using a personal computer so that it could be easily updated and permanently maintained as a
living document. I immediately embarked on the project. The original bibliographic project was later expanded to
include a subject index of Cuban philatelic literature based on the bibliography (this index is still in its early
stages of preparation and is included in the present edition with the caveat that it is incomplete). After much
planning and hard work, this bibliography came to fruition. I offer it to you as my personal contribution to Cuban
philately with the devotion of an inveterate philatelist.

However, the work is far from over. After Dr. Ferrer-Monge's death, a group of his friends got together, formed a
group called the Cuban Philatelic Study Group, pooled financial resources, and purchased Dr. Ferrer-Monge's
library from his widow to ensure his bibliographic research material was preserved. Books from the library have
been distributed to the group members or sold elsewhere when they were already available in our libraries. I am
currently the repository of Dr. Ferrer-Monge's bibliographic notes and his extensive files of photocopies of
articles on Cuban philately which he accumulated during his bibliographic research. I have used part of this
material to update and revise this edition and previous editions of my bibliography, but there is still a large
amount of material that needs to be reviewed. I still need to provide annotations for a number of existing entries
and to improve the subject index to facilitate research of specific topics. Moreover, I think of this bibliography as
a living document to which additional citations are to be added as works are published or discovered and are
brought to my attention. Following past practice, subsequent editions of the bibliography will be prepared for
presentation at future international philatelic exhibitions.

Note to the PACIFIC 97 Edition

This PACIFIC 97 Edition of the bibliography is the fifth edition of the bibliography which made its debut at the
AMERIPEX 86 International Stamp Show held in Chicago, Illinois, May 22 to June 1, 1986--and to which I refer
to as the AMERIPEX 86 Edition. Each subsequent edition has been created by making extensive corrections and
additions to the preceding one. The second edition was presented at the CAPEX 87 International Stamp
Exhibition held in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, June 13-21, 1987. That edition was named the CAPEX 87 Edition.
The third edition was the HAFNIA 87 Edition, which was prepared for the HAFNIA 87 International Philatelic
Exhibition held in Helsinki, Denmark, October 17-27, 1987, but first was first presented at ESPAMER 87, the
Spanish American International Exhibition held in La Coruña, Spain, October 2-12, 1987. The fourth edition was
the GRANADA 92 Edition, presented at GRANADA 92, the International Philatelic Exhibition held in Granada,
Spain, April 24-May 3, 1992. This PACIFIC 97 Edition has been prepared for presentation at PACIFIC 97, the
United States International Philatelic Exhibition to be held in San Francisco, California, May 29 to June 8, 1997.

Use of the Bibliography

The format of entries in the bibiography is as follows:

For periodicals:

• <name and date key>* author's last name, first name and initials (the asterisk following the name and date
key is only included for entries for which I have an original or a copy in my library)
• "title of article enclosed in quotes"
• (translation into English of title, if applicable, enclosed in parentheses; if the parentheses are absent, this
indicates that a full translation of the article also appears in the publication cited)
• title of the periodical (underlined and usually abbreviated--refer to list of abbreviations in this
introduction)
• volume and issue number in which the article appears
• date of the issue: day, month, and year (when available)
• page numbers where the article can be found in the issue, followed by the total number of pages in the
article enclosed in parenthesis,
• indication of whether the article contains illustrations (usually abbreviated "ill."),
• indication of the language the article is written in, if it is not English
• blank line to separate citation body from annotation
• brief annotation summarizing the contents of the article and/or highlighting any critical information it
contains

For books, and other self-contained publications, or pages therein:

• <name and date key>* author's last name, first name and initials title of book or publication underlined
• (translation into English of title, if applicable, enclosed in parentheses; if the parentheses are absent, this
indicates that a full translation of the work also appears under the same cover)
• place of publication followed by ":"
• publisher
• date of publication: day, month, and year (when available),
• edition of the book or publication whenever applicable,
• total number of pages in the book or publication followed by the abbreviation "pp."
• total number of pages of illustrations (if applicable) followed by the abbreviation "ill."
• if the book or publication is not entirely dedicated to matters related to Cuban philately, indication of the
portions of the work of interest to the Cuban philatelist (starting and ending page numbers as well as
chapter information),
• indication of the language the book or publication is written in, if it is not in English
• blank line to separate citation body from annotation
• brief annotation summarizing the contents of the book or publication and/or highlighting any critical
information it contains

Entries in the bibliography are arranged alphabetically by the authors' last name. The works of each author are
listed by date of publication beginning with the earliest work. Each entry has been given a reference key for ease
of citation and computer accessibility. These keys appear within angular brackets "<>" and usually consist of 8
characters. The first 4 characters are the first 4 letters of the author's last name. The next 2 characters are the last
2 digits of the year of publication, followed by 2 characters for the month. If the author's last name is less than
four characters long, only those characters in the last name are used in the key. If only a year date is given in a
citation, zeroes are used in place of the month. If the work is known to be published, but either the year or month
of publication are not known, two question marks each ("??") are used in place of the missing year or date. If the
work is known to be unpublished, a dash ("-") and a sequential lower case letter are used to distinguish it from
other unpublished works by the same author. Thus the key for a work published by Juan Mena in September

ii 11-May-97
1936 would be <MENA3609>; if Mena's last name were instead "Men", the key would be <MEN3609>; if no
month of publication were given, the key would be <MENA3600>; and if no date of publication were given at all,
the key would be <MENA????>; but if the work is known to be unpublished, the key would be <MENA-a>.
When the date of publication is given in the form of 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th quarter of a year, the beginning month of
each quarter is used for the month date (i.e., Jan, Apr, Jul, Oct, respectively). When the date of publication is
given in the form of a season (i.e., Spring, Summer, Fall, or Winter), the first month of the season is used for the
month date (i.e., Mar, Jun, Sep, Dec, respectively).

Using this coding scheme, there are occasions in which different citations have the same key. Instances of this are
when the first four letters of authors' last names are identical or when one author publishes more than one work in
the same month and year, and even in the same issue of a publication. The conflict in keys due to similar names
is resolved by appending a fifth letter after the first four letters of each conflicting key. This fifth letter is the fifth
letter of the authors' last names if their fifth letters are different. If the authors' last names coincide in the fifth
letter, the first letter of the maternal lastname is used to differentiate the entries; or in the absence of a maternal
last name, the first letter of their first names is used to distinguish the keys. In this last case, a dash may be added
between the fourth and fifth characters to ensure the proper alphabetical ordering of keys and last names
whenever there are conflicting entries with and without maternal flastnames. If a conflict persists, some unique
minimum combinations of letters from the authors' paternal, maternal, and first names, are used to resolve
conflicts so as to maintain the keys in the same alphabetical sequence as the authors’ names (see first example
below).

The conflict in keys due to coincidence in year and month of publication is resolved by adding a lower case letter
after the four digits of conflicting date keys. These letters are assigned in increasing alphabetical order
corresponding to increasing days of the month. When an author publishes more than one work in one issue of a
publication, a similar scheme is used, differentiating entries by adding a lower case letter in increasing
alphabetical order corresponding to the increasing page numbers of the publication. Finally, for the sake of
clarity, when the works of an author span over the end of a century, the four date digits are preceded by a fifth
digit identifying the century. The following examples illustrate the assignment of keys:

Author's Name Citation Details Key

Mena, Juan July 1947 <MENA-J4707>

Mena, Juan Ramón July 1947 <MENA-JR4707>
Mena, Julio July 1947 <MENA-JU4707>
Mena, Justo July 1947 <MENA-JUS4707>
Menadi, Aldo July 1947 <MENAD4707>

Menas, Julio 1 July 1899, p.5 <MENAS89907a>

Menas, Julio 1 July 1899, p.7 <MENAS89907b>
Menas, Julio 17 July 1899, p.3 <MENAS89907c>
Menas, Julio 17 July 1899, p.5 <MENAS89907d>
Menas, Julio 31 July 1899, p.5 <MENAS89907e>

Menas, Julio Oct. 1899 <MENAS89910>

Menas, Julio 17 July 1900 <MENAS90007>

The bibliography also contains entries for philatelic journals, bulletins, and periodicals primarily dedicated to
Cuban philately. The key for each such entry is the abbreviation used in this bibliography for the title of the
publication. For example, the entry <AF> in the bibliography corresponds to the journal Actividades Filatélicas
which is abbreviated AF throughout the bibliography. A list of publication name abbreviations and other
abbreviations used in the bibliography is provided in the last section of this introduction.

Frequently, published works do not cite the author. When it is clear that the author of a work is the editor of the
publication where it appears, the work has been ascribed to the editor. When no clear authorship is evident and
iii 11-May-97
the work appears in a journal, bulletin, or periodical, the work is listed under the name of the publication. Thus,
an anonymous article appearing in Actividades Filatélicas of January 1948 would be listed as <AF4801>. Note,
however, that such entries are placed in the bibliography in alphabetical order of the key --not the full title of the
publication.

A Note About Content

The intent in preparing this bibliography has been to be as comprehensive and exhaustive as possible, while trying
at the same time to avoid including trivial or otherwise useless information. To that effect, announcements of new
issues have been excluded if they do not offer information beyond what is available in a general catalog. General
and specialized catalogs are listed without differentiation of yearly editions except when a particular edition
merits special attention. Auctions and sales of rare or a significant amount of Cuban material have been included
in the bibliography. Such entries appear under the name of the house conducting the auction or sale. Auctions
and sales of material from collections of identified eminent philatelists are also listed under the philatelists' names.

Many entries in the bibliography contain a brief description of the work cited. As time permits, annotations will
be provided for entries which currently do not have one and some of the existing ones will be expanded and/or
improved. Contributions of annotations or revisions to existing ones will always be welcome with the
understanding that I reserve the right to edit or exclude them as appropriate.

Availability of the Bibliography and Cited Works

Copies of this bibliography are available from me at $40 postpaid in the U.S.A. and $50 abroad. Copies of
portions of this bibliography and most of the works cited, not otherwise protected by copyrights, are also
available from me at 10c. per page plus postage. Available items are marked with an asterisk "*" following each
item's key (e.g., <MENA3609>*). Items which I do not have will always be welcome in exchange for items
which you might want from the bibliography. Please NOTE: When ordering an article you only need to use its
key; however, please indicate the edition of the bibliography that you are using because as the bibliography is
augmented and refined some of the keys might be changed.

Request for Help

I intend to make this a "living document" which I will continuously update and upgrade. Later on I intend to
complement this work with a subject index based on this bibliography. The possibilities afforded by a personal
computer in this work are enormous, as is the potential for continuous improvement of the work already done.
However, there are also limits to a single person's effort, scope, and view in such an endeavour. I will thus greatly
appreciate any help that anybody can give me in improving the work at hand. To this effect, the following are
areas in which help will be most welcome:

1. The task of producing an annotated bibliography is impossible to achieve without copies of the cited works. I
will thus appreciate receiving original copies or photocopies of any cited work which I am missing, as indicated
by the lack of an "*" following the reference key. I will also appreciate information about the availability of cited
works, especially originals, in public and private libraries.

2. I am sure that the bibliography contains numerous errors in the citations and in the annotations. I will welcome
any corrections to current text that can be supported with concrete evidence.

3. Many entries in the bibliography are not annotated due to the lack of a copy of the work cited or due to lack of
time to read the work and to prepare an intelligent annotation. Many existing annotations could use improvement.
For example, in order to prepare a good subject index, I will need to provide annotations in the bibliography that
identify as clearly as possible the philatelic items discussed in each work cited, down to specific catalog numbers
of those items when available, or very good descriptions of the items when they are uncataloged. Any help in
improving existing annotations or in providing missing ones will be most welcome.

iv 11-May-97
4. Many works in the bibliography do not identify the author. Such works are listed under the title of the
publication in which they are to be found. Works without claimed authorship are often written by the editor of
the publication containing the work, but this needs to be ascertained without doubt and the name of the editor at
the time the publication was issued needs to be determined. Help in establishing the authorship of anonymous
works in the bibliography is greatly needed.

5. Preparation of a good subject index will require a detailed breakdown of all subject areas pertaining to Cuban
philately. Detailed suggested breakdowns for any specific area of expertise in Cuban philately will be most
appreciated.

Acknowledgements

Many people have contributed to the realization of this work. To all of them I wish to convey a deep sense of
gratitude, for without their help a work such as this would not have been possible. Special mention must be made
of the late Drs. José A. Ferrer-Monge and Miguel Angel Chiong who made their own bibliographical research
available to me for incorporation into this bibliography. Dr. Chiong in particular provided me with copies of
countless items cited in the bibliography, reviewed extensive portions of the work, provided me with invaluable
feedback, and sold me his extensive philatelic library at a very modest price before passing away.

Equally special mention must be made of Messrs. Mark R. Tyx and Norman Gahl. Mr. Tyx has extensively
supported the work from its inception by researching questionable entries, identifying new entries, providing
annotations for entries, and locating photocopies of items missing from my library. Mr. Gahl is a more recent
active contributor. His monumental Bibliografía Filatélica y Postal: España y sus Ex-Colonias 1500-1980,
published in 1984 in collaboration with Natalio S. Nathan, had already long ago been a main source of
information for this bibliography. I sent Mr. Gahl a copy of the GRANADA 92 Edition of my bibliography and
he has since provided me with photocopies of items I was missing and corrections and suggestions for its
improvement. Most of them have been incorporated in this PACIFIC 97 Edition and I’m extremely grateful to
him for his invaluable collaboration--which I hope will continue for the preparation of future editions...

I am also very grateful to the Cuban Philatelic Study Group. The members of that group are the late Dr. Chiong,
Mrs. Silvia García-Frutos and Messrs. Yamil H. Kouri del Pino, William McP. Jones, Ignacio Prats, Pedro M.
Rodríguez, Roberto M. Rosende, and Mark R. Tyx. To all my sincere thanks for your support.

Last, but most important, I must express my gratitude to my wife, Laura María Herrera, whose editorial comments
and corrections have been invaluable in the preparation of the bibliography and whose overall support throughout
the production of the bibliography made the long hours of work bearable.

profusely illustrated, in Spanish.

This is an outstanding work comprisingthe stamp and postal stationery issues of Cuba during the Spanish
Administration. It includes regular postage stamp issues, official stamps,telegraph stamps, revolutionary war
stamps, and postal stationery. The catalog starts with a two page presentation on the postal rates of the period
covered. It then proceeds to discuss in detail all of the regular postage issues in chronological order with the
official stamp issues and revolutionary war issues inserted into the presentation in chronologicalsequence.
Telegraph stamps and postal stationery are discussed in separate sections at the end of the catalog. Each issue is
treated in detail with the regular values plus their known major varieties listed, and illustrated and discussed when
appropriate. Prevailing postage ratesand usages are also discussed for each issue and illustrations of the
cancellations known to be used in their period of circulation are reproduced or shown on actual stamps, pieces, or
covers. The coverage, detail, and veracity of the work is outstanding with the exception of the sections on
telegraph stamps and postal stationery which are complete and accurate, but lack the detailed discussion and
illustration of usages that are the crowning glory of the bulk of the catalog. The catalog is primarily based on the
private collection of Mr. Abreu with the following exceptions which he noted on a private letter to me as
belonging to the Cuban Postal Museum: all of the material concerning the Y 1/4 surcharges, the covers of the
military expeditions to Mexico and the Dominican Republic (pp.75-79), and the items on pages 12, 64, 70, and
110. This catalog is an indispensable reference to the student of Cuban postage issuesand their postal history.

<AF>* Actividades Filatélicas (Philatelic Activities)

Organo Oficial del Club Filatélico de la República de Cuba
(Official Journal of the Philatelic Club of the Republic of Cuba).
La Habana, Cuba: Nos.1 through 125-126, May 1936 to Sep-Oct 1964.

The journal was published irregularly (roughly on a quarterly basis) from May 1936 to September-October 1964.
The first issue was published as a four page "Philatelic Section" in a monthly propaganda magazine called
Souvenir published by Andrés Belmonte,owner of the publishing house "Alfa". The "Philatelic Section" was
edited by Enrique R. Stamp, a foreign philatelist according to Dr. Ernesto Bello; and none other than Dr. Bello
himself hiding under a pen name, according to others. Four issues were published as part of the Souvenir
magazine corresponding to the months of May, June, July, and August of 1936 and then publication temporarily
ceased. It was resumed with Issue No.5 in March 1937 as a separate journal under the name Actividades
Filatélicas that we all know. The last issue of the journal was labelled Issue No.125-126 and is dated September-
October 1964.

The journal is written entirely in Spanish and contains information on a wide variety of subjects from club
activities and news to articles on worlwide philatelic topics. The depthof the material ranges from the trivial to
the very learned. Emphasisis on matters pertaining to Cuban philately on which there is a wealth of information
on a broad range of subjects. The journal is an indispensable source for any serious student of Cuban philately.
A fairly completeset of this journal exists in the U.S. National Philatelic Library at the U.S. Postal Museum, part
of the Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C. (donation of the late philatelist and bibliophile George T.
Turner). <HORN9600> also cites The Collectors Club of New York as a source.

The known issues of this journal are listed following:

"El vuelo circular del Zeppelin a América del Sur en 1930"
("The Roundtrip Flight of the Zeppelin to South America in 1930")
RF, No.300, Nov 1994, pp.667-672, ill., Span.

The article describes the roundtrip flight of the Graf Zeppelin to South America from May 18 to June 6, 1930,
departing from Friedrichshafen, Germany and stopping at Seville, Spain; Pernambuco and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil;
Lakehurst, U.S.A.; Seville, Spain; and arriving back at Friedrichshafen. Although the flight did not stop in Cuba,
it overflew the city of Havana on the return flight and reportedly dropped mail there from the air probably on May
30. The article notes, however, that all of the dropped mail was postmarked on June 2. The article also notes that
a letter addressed for Laurinburg in the U.S.A. was among those dropped in Havana and arrived at its destination
on June 6. None of the covers dropped in Havana is illustrated.

cover are included where they exist and were available. Details of the identifying characteristics of each forgery

plate of 200 subjects in two sheets of 100, but it was not until some time later that a portion of the second sheet
(86 stamps) was found by another philatelist who had bought them and put them aside, not noticing the error.
This finding helped dispel doubts about the authenticity of the error.

“Cuba: Documentos de Policía” (“Cuba: Police Document Stamps”)
The International Revenuer, Issue 17, p.8, in English despite the title in Spanish.

English translation of a Decree dated at La Habana, December 31, 1855, and signed by José de la Concha,
specifying the regulations and rates for the collection of “police taxes” to be imposed on passports, bills of
unloading, travel and transit permits, public transportation licenses, dwelling certificates, retail sale permits,
peddling licenses, hunting licenses, permits for billiards, permits for ball games, permits for public balls, etc.
These taxes were initially represented by a stamp directly imprinted on the documents, but later started to be paid
with stamps when the first issue of the “Documentos de Policía” stamps were placed in circulation in 1865.
Article 6 of the decree mentions the use of “countersign” or “control” stamps for countersigned licenses which the
author identifies as being the “Sellos de Referendo”.

8/22/2008 B-2
CA, Epoch 3, No.2, 15 Aug 1899, p.12, Span.

Refutal of the the allegations made by Emilio J. Power in <POWE89906> that the Puerto Príncipe surcharges
were speculative and not postally valid. Power alleges in his piece that all remanents of the 1896-97 stamp issue
were returned to the main office of the Banco Español de la Isla de Cuba in Havana and were thus not available
for surcharging. Barreras refutes this by citing a document in his possession from the Director of the Puerto
Príncipe branch of the bank stating that the bank had sold a number of these stamps to the U.S. Commander
General in Puerto Príncipe. (A confusing fact in Barrera's citation of the above document is that the only stamps
that he mentions as taking part in the transaction are those of the 1896-97 issue--he doesn't mention the stamps of
the 1898 issue that were also included in the transaction). The second part of the article is in response to the
discrepancies noted in <AJP89908> between the Puerto Príncipe stamp facts and listings provided in
<AJP89907a> and in <BARR89907>. Barreras notes that the 5c. on 2m. orange brown stamp was not listed by
his source in Puerto Príncipe and was thus absent from his listing, and that he had reported the existence of 3c. on
4 and 8m. blue green stamps because he had been told that all the milésima stamps of the issue had been
surcharged. Power subsequently responds to this article in <POWE89909b>.

and from Arturo Roca Silveira of the Spanish Bank of the Island of Cuba in the Province of Puerto Príncipe
certifying that the Puerto Príncipe surcharges were ordered and authorized by U.S. Commanding General
Carpenter for use as postage until 20 Jan 1899 when replaced by the U.S. surcharged stamps.

Bried article meant to correct an incorrect explanation of the meaning of the Y 1/4 surcharges of Cuba provided
by Mr. E. Gainsborg in a letter sent to the Stanley Gibbons Monthly Journal (see <GAIN0012>). Mr. Gainsborg
incorrectly states that the Y 1/4 meant “And 1/4” indicating that a 1/4 r. fee was added to 2 r. payed by the
underlying stamp to pay the postman for delivering the letter. Mr. Barreras, under the pseudonym “B. A. Reras”,

was conceived and implemented.

Article on the origin and meaning of the Y 1/4 surcharged stamps used for the payment of postage on letters sent
within the limits of the city of Havana in 1855. The article gives a brief overview of the establishment of the
inner city mails of Havana and the surcharging of regular 2 reales stamps with the Y 1/4 surcharge for use in
payment of inner city mail postage. The article then proceeds to reproduce several key government documents
describing the establishment of the inner city mails and the measures that needed to be taken to that effect. The
cited documents include references to the quantities of stamps that were surcharged on various occasions but do
not provide sufficient information for establishing total numbers surcharged overall.

Excellent critique of foreign catalogs with reference to erroneous information, classification, etc. of Cuban
stamps. Interestingly enough, several present day catalogs have not yet corrected some of the reported errors.

RSFC, Yr.III, No.9, 15 Sep. 1904, pp.129-141 (13); 33 pages total, ill.

The first three installments of what would have been an excellent classification of Cuban revenue stamps. The
articles stop with the September 1904 issue of the RSFC and no explanation of their abrupt cessation is found in
subsequent issues of the RSFC. However, Barreras and Gutiérrez later publish a comprehensive catalog of Cuban
revenue stamps which probably goes beyond the information intended for these articles (see <BARR91200>).

1912, 255 pp., ill., Span. Limited edition in book form.

The most complete catalog ever published of the revenue stamps of Cuba covering the period 1856 to 1912.
Originally published serially in the RSFC where the first three installments appeared from July to September
1904, but discontinued thereafter without explanation (see <BARR90407a>). The coverage of Cuban revenues
provided in this catalog is more extensive than Forbin's. Includes citations from official documents. An
indispensable reference for the Cuban revenues collector.

surcharge displaced so that the "10c. de Peso" appears in the middle and "CUBA" near the bottom. Denial of the
existence of a 2c green envelope on amber, size 13, surmising correctly that it probably was size 5 instead (UPSS

<BCFD> Boletín Círculo Filatélico "La Demajagua"

(Bulletin of the Philatelic Circle "La Demajagua")
Manzanillo, Cuba: Quarterly bulletin of the Philatelic Circle "La Demajagua". Publication started with Yr.1,
Issue 1 of 12 Oct 1967 and continues to date. The bulletin has been under the editorship of César A. Ferrer since
mid-1974. Published in Spanish with limited illustrations.

In its beginnings, the bulletin was an irregularly published brief newsletter containing information on club
activities, offers of philatelic material, requests for exchange, and other assorted announcements. Starting with
issue No.15 of Apr-Jun 1977, publication became regular on a quarterly basis with 8 to 16 pages in each issue and
more substance was added to its content. However, most--if not all--articles appearing in the bulletin are reprints
from other sources. The published issues according to a list provided by César A. Ferrer in May 1989 is as

U.S. International Postal Rates, 1872-1996
Co-author: Anthony S. Wawrukiewicz (see <WAWR9600>)
Portland, Or.: CAMA Publishing Co., 1996, viii + 402 pp., mostly tables, many illustrations.

This is a very complete compendium of U.S. international rates/fees for all mail originating in the U.S. mailed to
other UPU countries from 1872 to 1996, including pre-UPU and special treaty rates. The book also includes rates
and fees for mail coming to the U.S. from UPU member coutries, with surface rates/fees listed from 1879 until
1950, and surface and airmail rates/fees from 1950 until 1971. The information on rates contained in this work is
exhaustive and of extreme value to the postal historian studying Cuban mail to and from the United States or mail
to and from other countries routed through the United States.

The "F.D.C. 3" in the title indicates that this is the third installment of the catalog (see <BELL5109b>). The list
of the first day of issue of commemorative stamps spans the period 6 December 1948 to 28 February 1950, but
also includes the Cuban flag centennary issue, the Clara L. Maas issue, and the Raúl Capablanca issue without
dates. It is unclear whether the list implies that FDCs exist for all of the listed items. The section of semi-postal
issues spans the period 23 November 1938 to 17 March 1951, but also includes the 1952 issue for the retirement
fund of the Cuban Communications Ministry without day of issue. The section of airmail issues includes five
items spanning the period 1 November 1927 to 15 August 1951 which are the first five items listed in

The "FDC. 4." in the title indicates that this is the fourth installment of the catalog (see <BELL5106>). The list of
first days of issue of airmail stamps spans the period from 1 November 1927 to 13 October 1937. It is unclear
whether the list implies that FDCs exist for all of the listed items. The list of tuberculosis seals issued for the
benefit of children's hospitals covers the years from 1938 to 1951. The list of "victory" issues includes the two
postal tax stamps issued to raise funds for the Red Cross during the Second World War (Scott RA5 and RA6) and
the postal tax stamp issued to raise funds for a new Communications Building (Scott RA11). The lists don't
convey any new or substantial information.

List of souvenir sheets and other collateral material from 1902 to 1951. The list is divided in three sections:

announcing forthcoming new issues. The catalog covers the period 1934-1951. Also a listing of stamps issued in
sheets of four panes of 25 stamps separated by blank gutters from 1934 to 1951. Some of the sheets contain a
design in the center where the blank gutters cross; but this is not noted. Most entries in this second list are
followed by the capital letters "H.C." presumably standing for "Hojita" (little sheet--a reference to the panes of 25

<BFC> Boletín Filatélico Cubano (Cuban Philatelic Bulletin)

La Habana, Cuba: Sociedad Filatélica de la Habana (Philatelic Society of Havana). Official Bulletin of the
Philatelic Society of Havana. Edited in Spanish by Dr. Ernesto Bello from January 1951 to mid 1952; initially
every month, later every two months. In an undated bulletin, probably published in September 1952 as deduced
from its contents, Dr. Bello informs the membership that thereafter the bulletin would be published as part of the
Bulletin of the National Council for Tuberculosis. However, thereafter publication seems to have fizzled.
Referenced in <HORN9600> as item no. 12410, citing The Collectors Club of New York as a source.

The bulletin was mimeographed (sometimes poorly), without page numbering, and was held by a single staple. It
contains no illustrations. Most issues included one or two pages on official letterhead of the National Council for
Tuberculosis containing propaganda promoting the fight against tuberculosis through the use of semi-postal
stamps, non-postal seals, pamphlets, and social awareness activities. The known issues of the bulletin are listed

stamps used in Cuba during this period are exact copies of those used in Spain and thus the information provided
in the book is also directly applicable to their expertization. Moreover, the first couple of sections of the book
(pp.19-70) contain very useful information for the expertization of stamps in general. These initial sections
discuss the role of paper, color, inks, cancellations, surcharges, secret marks, and restoration practices in the
expertization of stamps.

<BM>* El Boletín (The Bulletin)
Official journal of The Cuban Philatelic Society of America, Inc. (CPSA) from Issue No.1, Oct 1979, to Issue
No.33, Nov-Dec 1989. Beginning with Issue No.34 of Jan-Feb 1989, the publication changed in character from
that of a philatelic journal to being a vehicle for tri-annual auctions featuring Cuban material exclusively. Editor:
Silvia García-Frutos, from inception to date. Published in Miami, Florida.

Epoch I--Issue No.1, Oct 1979, to Issue No.33, Nov-Dec 1989.

This publication replaced The Cuban Philatelist, whose last number was issued in March 1979, as the official
journal of the CPSA. Most information contained in the journal is published in both Spanish and English. All
issues of the journal have been published in 8.5 x 11 inch format. The frequency of publication has been variable
through the years as can be seen in the dating of its issues. Page numbering has been erratic, ranging from no
numbering, to individual numbering of each issue, to running numbers across several issues. Volume numbers
started appearing with Issue No.27 of Sep-Dec 1987, which was assigned Vol. No.IX. The journal contains
society news and both original articles and reprints. About every other issue also features an auction. It is
recommended reading for Cuban philatelists--both general collectors and specialists.

Following is a list of the issues comprised in Epoch I:

No.1, Oct 1979, 8 pp. No.2, Nov 1979, 8 pp.

Epoch II--Issue No.34, Jan-Feb 1989, to date.

Starting with Issue No.34, the bulletin was primarily dedicated to triannual auctions of Cuban philatelic material
and society news, with an occasional philatelic article. At the same time, The Cuban Philatelist (see CPa) was
resuscitated as a separate tri-annual journal dedicated exclusively to articles on Cuban philately. Publication of
the bulletin and the journal became regular until the end of 1993, with the bulletin appearing dated Jan-Feb, May-
Jun, and Sep-Oct, and the journal appearing dated Mar-Apr, Jul-Aug, and Nov-Dec. Starting in 1994 to date, the
bulletin has been published twice yearly.

<BMI>* Boletín Mensual Informativo (Monthly Information Bulletin)

Author: Guerra Aguiar, José Luis (also listed as <GUER5701a>).
La Habana, Cuba: Publicaciones Filatélicas "Guerra-Aguiar" (Philatelic Publications "Guerra-Aguiar"),
published monthly, from Yr.1, No.1, Jan 1957 to Yr.3, No.12, Dec 1959, ill., Span.

Monthly information bulletin on current and future Cuban postal issues. The bulletin regularly reproduced the
postal orders issued by the Cuban Ministry of Communications for the production of new postal issues. The
bulletin also featured every month a section called "Historia y Filatelia Cubana" ("Cuban History and Philately")
containing a usually fairly good article on Cuban philately, and a section called "Buzón de Consultas" ("Inquiries
Mailbox") presenting and answering questions on Cuban philately from the readership. Most of the contents of
the bulletin were authored by Guerra Aguiar himself who is referred to in the bulletin as its "Director".
Occasionally, one finds contributions from other philatelists included in the bulletin, but they are sparce. In view
of this, all works in the bulletin which do not specifically name an author have been ascribed to Guerra Aguiar in
this bibliography.

summarized in English at the back of each bulletin. Most articles pertain to Cuban philately, although not
exclusively--almost all issues have substantive articles dealing with topics outside of Cuban philately. Publication
of the bulletin ceased with issue No.19 of December 1985. Following is a list of the 19 issues published:

Reference to the error in spelling of "immediata" instead of "inmediata" in Scott E2 which was corrected in Scott
E3. The article refers to the error as an error in translation which it was not: the translation was correctly made
from the English "special delivery" to the Spanish "entrega inmediata". The error in spelling was either
introduced by the translator or by the engraver upon reading the translation because of the similarity of spelling of
the word "inmediata" in Spanish with the spelling of "immediate" in English.

The article is an excellent description of the U.S. air service to Barranquilla, but much useful information can be
derived from its reading by the Cuban aerophilately student. Page 65 mentions U.S. air service to Havana, Cuba.
In addition, numerous details of the operation of the U.S. air service to Barranquilla were similar to those of the
service to Havana, since the client, the U.S., and the company providing the air service to Barranquilla, Pan
American Airways, were the same as involved in the air service to Havana and the planes used were the same (the
article contains photos and descriptions of the planes). Moreover, the sources of information cited in the article
are also good sources for information on the service to Cuba.

The last item discussed in this article is a 2c. on 2c. green on white envelope (Scott U3) used in the Philippines.
The item was sent from Manila to Rochelle, New York, and was postmarked on July 16, 1901. The article
speculates on how this usage could have happened and cites various U.S. postal orders that might have applied to
validate or exclude such usage but are not totally clear on the matter. Whatever the applicable regulations, the
item was accepted by the Philippine Islands postal service at the time. For more discussion on the validity of the
use in the continental United States and its territories and posssessions of U.S. postal stationery overprinted for

<CA>* El Curioso Americano (The Curious American)

Habana: Imprenta y Papelería "La Comercial" de López y Casanova. Subtitle on cover page of Oct 1894 issue
reads: "Correspondencia entre literatos, americanistas, anticuarios, timbrólogos, etc. y revista de todo género de
documentos y noticias interesantes." ("Correspondence between literary people, americanists, antiquarians,
philatelists, etc., and journal for all genre of interesting documents and news."). Director: Dr. Manuel Pérez
Beato. Miguel Lázaro becomes its administrator starting in its 3rd Epoch, No.1, of 15 July 1899. Details of its
publication are available in <GUER5802d> and <TERR6207>.

First series: Yr.I, No.1, Dec 1892 to Yr.I, No.14, Jul 1893; published twice monthly through issue No.12 of 15
May 1893, then monthly in June and July. Second series: Yr.II, No.1, Oct 1894 to Yr.II, No.5, Feb 1895. Third
series: 3rd Epoch, No.1, 15 July 1899 to 3rd Epoch, Yr.2, Nos.4-5, April-May 1901; starting with issue No.1, this
series has a full-fledged philatelic section ("Sección Filatélica") with contributions of articles by Pérez Beato, A.
Barreras, E. J. Power, and M. Lázaro. The journal reappears again from 1907 to 1912 and one final time from
1919 to 1920 according to <GUER5802d>. However, all of the known material of interest to Cuban philately
comes from the second and third series. The journal is listed in the U.S. Library of Congress (Call No.
AP63/.C85, bound in 4 vols.), but Ferrer-Monge reports that he was told they could not be found when he
requested to see them. Some issues are available in the New York Public Library, but are in sad shape and are not
allowed to be photocopied (Call No. *DS 1892-1901). Partial holdings exist in the library of the University of
Harvard, the University of Miami Richter Library, and the Collectors Club of New York library.

The following are known issues of the journal:

First Series (no pages available, but subject index is available and shows nothing of interest to Cuban philately):
Yr.I, No.1, 1 Dec 1892 Yr.I, No.2, 15 Dec 1892
Yr.I, No.3, 1 Jan 1893 Yr.I, No.4, 15 Jan 1893
Yr.I, No.5, 1 Feb 1893 Yr.I, No.6, 15 Feb 1893
Yr.I, No.7, 1 Mar 1893 Yr.I, No.8, 15 Mar 1893
Yr.I, No.9, 1 Apr 1893 Yr.I, No.10, 15 Apr 1893
Yr.I, No.11, 1 May 1893 Yr.I, No.12, 15 May 1893
Yr.I, No.13, Jun 1893 Yr.I, No.14, Jul 1893
The 14 issues of this first series consisted of 256 pages.

Second Series (have complete as listed, but only pages in parenthesis contain information on Cuban philately):
Yr.II, No.1, Oct 1894, pp.1-16 (10-15)

C-1 8/22/2008
Yr.II, No.2, Nov 1894, pp.17-32 (18-21)
Yr.II, No.3, Dec 1894, pp.33-48
Yr.II, No.4, Jan 1895, pp.49-63
Yr.II, No.5, Feb 1895, pp.65-80

Third Series (labelled "Tercera Epoca" ("Third Epoch"); have complete, but only pages in parenthesis contain
information on Cuban philately):
No.1, 15 Jul 1899, pp.1-16 (pp.9-16)
No.2, 15 Aug 1899, pp.1-16 (pp.9-15), (pp. should have been numbered 17-32)
No.3, 15 Sep 1899, pp.33-48 (pp.41-47)
No.4, 15 Oct 1899, pp.49-64 (pp.61-64)
No.5, 15 Nov 1899, pp.65-80 (pp.73-80)
No.6, 15 Dec 1899, pp.81-96 (p.96)
No.7, Jan 1900, pp.1-16 (pp.9-11, 15-16), (pages should have been numbered 97-112; also this issue is labelled
4th Epoch, but this is reverted back to 3rd Epoch in the following issue)
Nos.8-9, Feb-Mar 1900, pp.113-140 (pp.129-135, and four unnumbered pages following p.140 which contain a
price list of Cuban stamps from M. Lázaro and which I have marked pp.140a-d)
Nos.10-11, Apr-Sep 1900, pp.141-172 (pp.157-171)
No.12, Oct 1900, pp.pp.173-188 (pp.183-186)
Starting with the first issue of 1901, the designation Yr.2 is added to the 3rd Epoch designation, implying that the
preceding issues correspond to Yr.1 of the 3rd Epoch:
Yr.2, Nos.1-2, Jan-Feb 1901, pp.1-38 (pp.17-30, 36-37) [missing pp.8-9]
Yr.2, No.3, Mar 1901, pp.39-58 (pp.47-57)
Yr.2, Nos.4-5, Apr-May 1901, pp.59-93 (pp.67-93, plus two photo plates of full sheets of the 5 and 10 cent 1883
surcharged stamps with double surcharges which are referenced in an article on p.86 and which I have thus
labelled pp.86a and 86b respectively).
According to <GUER5802d>, p.11, there is no philatelic content in the Fourth and Fifth Series of this journal
listed below because the contributors to the “Philatelic Section” of the journal went on to found the “Sociedad
Filatélica Cubana” (Cuban Philatelic Society) and poured their efforts into its journal RSFC. Indexes for the
years 1907, 1908, Jan-Feb and Mar-Apr 1909, and 1910 do not list any items on philately, confirming Guerra’s
statement.

Report of the issuance of U.S. stamps and envelopes surcharged for use in Cuba effective 10 Jan 1899. The
article lists the values issued and varieties in their color. The article is signed "P." which we presume to be

"Cuba 1898-99"

Analysis of the quantities of stamps issued and sold and remainders held by the "Banco Español de la Habana"
corresponding to the 1899-99 issue of Cuban stamps under the Spanish administration (Scott 156-175). The
article assesses the relative scarcity of various values of the issue and notes that the entire issue will probably be
valued highly in the future due to its brief period of circulation. Finally, the article wonders how some Spanish
dealers are offering complete sets of the stamps at below their face value. The article is signed "P." which we
presume to be Manuel Pérez Beato, the magazine's director.

"Variedades" ("Varieties")
CA, 3rd Epoch, No.4, 15 Oct 1899, pp.63-64, Span.

Reacting to a U.S. journal that believes Cuban bisects to be extremely rare, the first section of the article states
that bisects can be found in all years from 1867 to 1880, and cites some common and some rarer values that are
known bisected. Following sections mention the issuance of 1 and 2 cent Columbus envelopes and the
forthcoming issuance of postage due stamps reported in the official Cuban gazette. Finally, the article reports
from <AJP89909> that Mr. F.S. Smith has had some envelopes specially printed for him by the U.S. Post Office
Department and reproduces a list of existing U.S. envelopes and postage due stamps surcharged for use in Cuba
also published in <AJP89909>. The article fails to repeat the criticism that is made of Mr. Smith's activities in the
AJP.

<CA90002>* El Curioso Americano

“Controversia: Cuba 1898-1899” (“Controversy: Cuba 1898-1899”)
CA, 3rd Epoch, Yr.1, Nos.8-9, Feb-Mar 1900, pp.130-134 (5), Span. I have noted in my copy of this article that
the author was Emilio J. Power, but do not recall why I reached that conclusion.

Controversy over the offer by Madrid and Barcelona dealers to sell 100 sets of the last stamp issue of the Spanish
Administration (Scott 156-175) at the ridiculously low price at the time of 30 pesetas each. The author of the
article concludes that this would only be possible if the 1 and 2 peso values (Scott 174-175) included in the sets
were counterfeit and provides a detailed explanation of the logic supporting his conclusion.

<CA90101>* El Curioso Americano

"Variedades" ("Varieties")
CA, 3rd Epoch, Yr.2, Nos.1-2, Jan-Feb 1901, pp.36-37, Span.

Comments on several articles on Cuban stamps written in foreign philatelic journals reporting varieties, errors,
and forgeries. The entry is really a regularly appearing subsection in the journal. The first segment is subtitled
“Corrfos Corrlos Correcs ó CORFOS CORLOS CORRES?” and challenges the accuracy of a report in Cadiz
Filatélico of some varieties in the lettering of the word CORREOS in the heading of the stamps of the first issue
of Cuba. The second segment gives an account of four stamps that are extremely rare used and which often bear
counterfeit cancellations (Scott 16, 22, 83, and 159). The third segment discusses the error “immediata” on Scott
E2. The fourth segment challenges the genuineness of the Y 1/4 stamps in a lot of stamps containing several of
them that was offered in an ad in Madrid Filatélico at a ridiculously low price. The final segment talks about the
report of a counterfeit Y 1/4 stamp in the Boletín de la Sociedad Filatélica de Chile and challenges the claim by
author of the existence of 9 types of Y 1/4 surcharges. For a follow-up on this last segment see <CA90104>.

<CA90104>* El Curioso Americano

"Variedades" ("Varieties")
CA, 3rd Epoch, Yr.2, Nos.4-5, Apr-May 1901, pp.86-93 and two unnumbered pages of photos (corresponding to
the first segment in the article) which I have labelled pp.86a and 86b in my files. The article is in Spanish.

This piece comprises several segments, some with sub-headings, some without. The first segment is titled “Cuba
1833”, but should have read 1883 because it refers to two loose photos which are included in the journal showing
full sheets of the 5 and 10 cent 1883 surcharged stamps with double surcharges [the sheet on p.86a is currently in
my collection; it was purchased as part of lot 336 of the Soler y Llach auction of 14 Dec 1995]. The segment
observes that in many cases the double surcharges of this issue present different intensities in the inking of the
two surcharges and states that this is a normal occurrence and that such double surcharges should be considered
genuine. The second segment is titled “Rarezas de Cuba” (“Cuban Rarities”) and reports existence of the
following great Cuban rarities: two used Scott 222c (inverted surcharges) with Havana cancellations, one each
Scott 221 and 226 with “Xc. de PESO” in the center of the stamp and another two of the same values with “Xc. de
PESO” at the top and “CUBA” at the bottom, a 4 pta. 1877 telegraph stamp in green, two sheets of the 1 pta. 1874

8/22/2008 C-4
telegraph stamp in the same color as the 2 ptas. value of the same year, and several 1883 surcharged telegraph
stamps with inverted and double surcharges. The following segment is titled “Tres Variedades de Y 1/4” (“Three
varieties of Y 1/4”) and is a follow-up on the Y 1/4 discussion in <CA90101> reiterating that there exist three
types of these surcharges on five different stamps. This is followed by an untitled segment reporting the receipt
of a letter from the author of the article in the Chilean journal that started the discussion of the existing types of
these surcharges alleging that he has been misunderstood. Another untitled segment follows reporting the free-
franking priviledges given by the U.S. Government to General Máximo Gómez upon his arrival in Havana in
February 1899 and describing an envelope printed for this purpose (but not used). The next three titled segments
don’t deal with Cuban philately. The next segment is titled “El Correo de Cuba” and is a brief notice about the
recent demise of that weekly philatelic journal published in Havana. This is followed by two untitled segments.
The first one identifies several varieties found in a full sheet of newspaper stamp Scott P25 and states that one of
the varieties described also occurs in Scott P13 and P19; it also identifies several varieties of Scott P23. The
second untitled segment reproduces a listing of all stamps and postal stationery issued by the U.S. Postal
Administration for use in Cuba since January 1, 1899. This listing includes quantities issued. These segments are
followed by two titled segments that deal with non-Cuban philately. The segment that follows is titled “Retoques
a los sellos de las islas de Cuba y Filipinas de 1882” (“Retouches of the 1882 stamps of Cuba and Philippines”)
and describes three retouches of Scott 103 corresponding to Scott 125 and 126--the second retouch described falls
between these two but seems to correspond more closely to Scott 125. Another titled non-Cuba segment follows,
followed in turn by another untitled segment refering to an article in Le Timbrophile Belge reporting that some
European catalogers vouch for the existence of four Cuban postal cards that are unknown in Cuban philatelic
circles. After another titled non-Cuban philatelic segment, a segment titled “Sin perforar” (“Imperforate”)
discussed the cataloging and pricing of some Cuban imperforate stamps of the Spanish Administration and
concludes that they are proofs, whether issued in the same color as the issued stamps or not. The final segment is
a quite long segment labelled “Puerto Príncipe” which discusses details and known facts about the various
printings of these issues, including quantities of stamps printed and authenticity issues.

("First Postal Marks of the Terrestrial Posts of Spanish America")
Revista del Instituto de Cultura Portorriqueña (Journal of the Puerto Rican Institute for Culture), San Juan de
Puerto Rico, No.50, 1971, Span.

Presentation of the earliest post marks of Latin America from the colonial period with a very brief account of the
establishment of the postal service in the island of Cuba in 1757 with the appointment of the first postmaster
general, D. José Cipriano de la Luz. The article then goes on to discuss and illustrate a unique straightline
“HAVANA” cancellation of the period consisting of the letters “Havana” in white letters within a black rectangle
bordered on the outside with a white line. Both the letters of “Havana” and the white line of the border were
obtained as a “negative” impression within the “positive” black rectangle. Another peculiarity of the cancellation
is that the first four letters of “Havana” are in upper case letters and the last two in lower case. The author
surmises that the canceller that was used to apply this mark might be the same one identified by the second
postmaster general of the island, D. Joseph de Armona y Murga in the inventory of the post office at Havana
when he took over its administration. That canceller is described as “Un sello de Bronce con la inscricion:
Havana...” in the office ledger kept by the postmaster general Armona (see line four in Figure 4 of
<CAMI8203>). The only known example of this cancellation exists on an undated letter sent from Havana to the
Governor of Santiago de Cuba. The author judges this letter to be one of the jewels of Spanish-American postal
history.

Referencia Bibliográfica Sobre Literatura Española
Co-author: Enrique Barona Leal (see entry <BARO8500>).
Avilés, Spain: The Authors, 1985, 252 pp., Span.
Cuba is covered in Sect. 1.2, Postal History of Overseas Possessions, pp.25-29 (5); Sect. 1.3, Postal History of
Cuba, pp.31-33 (3); Sect. 2.2, Pre-Philately of Overseas Possessions, p.61; Sect. 2.3, Pre-Philately of Cuba, p.63;
and Sect. 3.3, Stamps of Cuba, pp.137-147 (11). Additional entries of relevance to Cuban philately can also be
found scattered throughout other sections of the bibliography.

Excellent comprehensive bibliography of the philatelic literature of Spain, its colonies, and former colonies. The
bibliography is organized into several sections as follows: postal history, pre-philately, stamps, free frankings and
mechanical frankings, topicals, postal stationery, airmail and space philately, postmarks, and general philately.
Each section is then subdivided by country, colony, or ex-colony, starting with Spain. Within each geographical
subdivision, entries are then listed alphabetically by authors' last names, and in chronological order under each
author. Note: All entries in the bibliography that were thought to pertain to Cuban philately have been included
in this bibliography; however, since the philately of Cuba under the Spanish Administration is so intrinsically
related to that of Spain and its other colonies, there are probably many other citations in Barona and Camino's
work that also contain additional information of relevance to Cuban philately.

professional philatelist Pedro Monge starting at the beginning of this century until his death in the early 1960’s

<CP>* The Cuban Philatelist

Miami, Florida: Quarterly journal of The Cuban Philatelic Club, Inc. of America (CPC), July 1971 to March
1979.
The first four issues (Vol.I, July, Sept., Dec. 1971 and Mar. 1972) were published entirely in Spanish under the
title El Filatelista Cubano by the Círculo Filatélico Cubano de Miami (The Cuban Philatelic Circle of Miami).
Starting with the first issue of Volume II, July 1972, the journal's title was changed to its English equivalent The
Cuban Philatelist and most information contained in the journal was published in both Spanish and English. This
change came about when the former Círculo Filatélico de Miami was incorporated and renamed The Cuban
Philatelic Club, Inc. of America.

The first four issues of El Filatelista Cubano and the subsequent 12 issues of The Cuban Philatelist were
published in 8.5 x 11 inch format. In mid-1975 the Cuban Philatelic Circle changed its name to the Cuban
Philatelic Society of America, Inc. (CPSA), and although The Cuban Philatelist conserved its name, it started
being published in odd sizes ranging between 7 to 7.5 by 8.5 to 9.25 inches with an oversize issue in October
1978 of 8 x 10 inches.

In total, 23 issues of the journal were published under the name The Cuban Philatelist on a quarterly basis, each
volume consisting of four issues numbered 1-4 corresponding to the months of July, October, January, and April.
The July 1978 issue was a double issue, Vol.VII, Nos.3-4. The last issue was Vol.VIII, No.2, March 1979. The
journal resumed publication under the new name of El Boletín (The Bulletin) in October 1979.

The editor of El Filatelista Cubano and the first editor of The Cuban Philatelist was the club's founder Agustín J.
Cantens, Jr. In the fall of 1976, Bernabé de Varona took over as editor of the journal starting with Vol.6, Issue
No.1, dated September 1976, and continued as its editor until the last issue of March 1979.

The journal contains a considerable amount of reprinted material and some good original articles. It is
recommended reading for Cuban philatelists --both general collectors and specialists.

<CPa>* The Cuban Philatelist (CPSA)

Official journal of The Cuban Philatelic Society of America, Inc. (CPSA) from Vol.I, Issue No.1, Mar-Apr 1989,
to date. Editor: Silvia García-Frutos, from inception to Vol.VII, Issue No.20, Nov-Dec 1995; published in
Miami, Florida, during this period. In 1996 Yamil H. Kouri del Pino took over as editor starting with Vol.VIII,
Issue No.21, July 1996 and continues in that capacity to date. With Kouri's editorship the journal started being
published in Boston, Massachusetts. Note: Articles appearing in the journal with no author indicated are
attributed to the editor at the time of publication.

The Cuban Philatelist was resuscitated (from the old <CP>) as a separate tri-annual journal dedicated exclusively
to articles on Cuban philately to replace El Boletín (<BM>) which until December 1988 had been the official
journal of the CPSA. Starting with Issue No.34, Jan-Feb 1989, El Boletín was primarily dedicated to tri-annual
philatelic auctions and The Cuban Philatelist took over as the official journal of the CPSA. Initially, publication
of the bulletin and the journal was regular, with the bulletin appearing dated Jan-Feb, May-Jun, and Sep-Oct, and
the journal appearing dated Mar-Apr, Jul-Aug, and Nov-Dec. However, starting in 1993 publication became
irregular: the journal was published once in 1993, three times in 1994, and twice yearly thereafter.

Following is a list of the journal issues to date:

Article refering to the controversy that the meaning of the Y 1/4 surcharges on the 2 reales stamps of the first and
third issues of Cuba (Scott 5-8 and 15) had raised with several “filatelistas ingleses” (It is not clear from the
context whether the “filatelistas ingleses” refers to “British philatelists” or “English-speaking philatelists”). In
any case, these gentlemen wrote to the Marquis of Portago asking for an opinion whose essence the article
proceeds to quote. The article does not clearly explain why this gentleman’s opinion was sought or what his
credentials for expressing an opinion on the matter were, other than by referring to his opinion as an “authorized
opinion” and referring to him as “Director General” without specifying what he was directing. However, the
explanation that the Marquis Portago provides accurately explains the reason, meaning, and use of these
surcharges.

Co-author: Ernesto Cuesta (see entry <TYX8600>).
Unpublished draft, available from the authors, 13 pp. text, 19 pp. photos.

The A. Eugene Michel collection of Foreign Government-Stamped Postal Stationery was donated by Mr. Michel
to the Nation and is now part of the U.S. National Philatelic Collection housed in the National Postal Museum of
the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. The inventory presented in this article includes the all of the
Cuban postal stationery in the collection. This draft left out some items that were later verified to be contained in
the collection. These were: 1) a UPSS 8 used envelope postmarked “HABANA, AUG ?, 9 A.M.”, and 2) the 1
and 2 cent, size 13, amber envelopes in the set of Republic Columbus “SPECIMEN” envelopes (the set in the
collection is a complete set of 24 envelopes). This inventory was later published in two parts in CPa: the first
part was <CUES8911>, which consisted of the U.S. Administration and Republic postal stationery and still
contained the mentioned omissions, and the second part was <CUES9610>, which consisted of the Spanish
Administration postal stationery. The 19 pages of photos in this draft contain many items in the Michel collection
not shown in the published versions because of lack of space.

made, of which 2 were kept by me (master and work copies), 10 were donated to institutional philatelic libraries
in the U.S. and the remainder went to private libraries; 13 in the U.S. and 7 abroad (Spain [2], Canada [1], México
[1], Costa Rica [1], Puerto Rico [2]).

The bibliography contains citations of works that deal with Cuban philately partially or totally, but excludes
trivial references such as modern new issue announcements. Annotations are provided for a majority of the
entries and more will be added in future editions as time permits. The bibliography is intended to be a living
document to which additional citations will be added as new works are published or discovered. A subject index
will eventually also be prepared to facilitate research of specific topics.

Annotated Bibliography of Cuban Philatelic Literature--CAPEX 87 Edition
Bethesda, Maryland: Completed 9 March 1987, 270 pp., 1733 entries. Prepared for presentation at CAPEX 87,
the Canadian International Philatelic Exhibition, held in Toronto, Canada, June 13-21, 1987. Reproduced through
photocopying upon request; a total of 28 copies were made, of which 2 were kept by me (master and work
copies), 2 were sent as philatelic literature entries to CAPEX 87, 10 copies were donated to institutional philatelic
libraries in the U.S. and 14 went to private libraries--5 in the U.S. and 9 abroad (Spain [4], Canada [2], México
[1], Puerto Rico [2]). Although the number of entries in this edition is only 119 more than in the AMERIPEX 86
Edition, the net changes made amounted to considerable more than what that number represents. Several
duplicate entries were deleted from the AMERIPEX 86 Edition, numerous corrections and revisions were made,
and a considerable number of annotations were added to existing entries. The reduced number of pages is
explained by the fact that in the CAPEX 87 Edition the number of lines printed per page was increased. The
promised subject index was under preparation but was not included as part of the bibliography. See
<CUES8604> for content annotation.

CPa, Vol.I, No.1, Mar-Apr 1989, pp.17-22, Eng. & Span.

This piece was supposed to inaugurate what I had hoped would be a regular feature of The Cuban Philatelist:
"Cuban Philatelic Literature Reviews" which I intended to produce by extracting from this bibliography. Unfor-
tunately, I did not follow through with this intention. Perhaps I will revive it in the future. In this particular piece
I attempted to list all the major Cuban philatelic journals that had been published to date, but I missed some
important ones such as the Revista de la Sociedad Filatélica Cubana. In this bibliography, I have updated the
information on the journals listed in the article and have extracted it into two separate listings, one brief (see
<CUES9701a>) and one detailed (see <CUES9701b>).

made to a forthcoming book on U.S. colonial stamps by a Mr. Melville which will provide the missing

A rather good and comprehensive, but by no means exhaustive, description of a good number of the existing
forgeries of Cuban stamps from the Spanish colonial period. The treatment starts with the Queen Isabella issue of
1855 and ends with the King Alfonso XIII issue of 1898 (but no information on forgeries of the issues between
1877 and 1898 is presented). For those forgeries that are treated in the work, the differences between the genuine
stamps and the forgeries are described in great detail.

FCb, Yr.13, No.2, May-Aug 1978, p.24, ill., Span.

Brief report of a new variety of the surcharge Y 1/4 on Scott 15 with the 1 of the fraction inverted. The article
makes reference to the 12 varieties of this surcharge identified in <GUER7700>, p.29, and identifies the variety in
question as a variant of the one classified as 14-E in an upcoming specialized catalog of Cuban stamps (that I have
not been able to identify) and suggests that the new variety should be assigned the number 14-L in the catalog.
It is a mistery why the article was titled “Two Varieties in a Single Stamp” because only one variety is discussed.

Surcharged Stamps”) RF, Yr.XXIV, No.255, Oct 1990, pp.339, 341-356 (17), ill., Span.
Included as a separata in the center of the magazine.

Excellent study of the plating of these surcharges based on the author’s own studies and the preceding work by
Diena (<DIEN8102>), Cruz Plana, Guerra Aguiar (<GUER7700>), and especially Prats (<PRAT8307>). The
article presents a diagram identifying the placement on a sheet of 170 stamps of the 22 varieties of the surcharge
identified by Prats and illustrates each of the 22 varieties. Only one position in the sheet (postition IX-2) is left
open because the type of surcharge in that position was unknown at the time of publication of the article (Prats
has since identified the type of surcharge in that position). The article then goes on to explain the use of a table
the author has devised to facilitate the identification of the position of the surcharge in the sheet once the type of
the surcharge has been established by comparison with the 22 types shown. This table lists the possible positions
in the sheet for each type of surcharge so that the reader can then focus on plating the surcharge by studying the
underlying characteristics of the base stamp. This is further facilitated by the inclusion in the article of detailed
illustrations of the identifying characteristics of the base stamps for all positions that have distinguishing
identifying characteristics. Overall, this is an excellent tool for the plating of these surcharges.

Classification of known Cuban killer cancellations of the Spanish colonial period from the first stamp issue of
1855 until their disappearance around 1888. The cancellations are classified into three distinct groups: I) oval to
almost round, II) round, and III) various other. The article illustrates each cancellation, specifies the known

Included as a separata with individual page numbering in the center of the magazine.

Detailed study of the Puerto Príncipe issue intended as a guide for the expertization of the five printings of the
surcharges that comprise the issue. The article provides a brief historical background of the circumstances that
led to the surcharging of the stamps, followed by an overview of the known facts about each printing, and ending
with a detailed presentation of the identifying characteristics of each printing and of each surcharge position
within each printing. The salient characteristics of the surcharges of each position are clearly described and
illustrated. This is an excellent succinct reference for the expertization of this issue. The author cites the work of
Barreras, later published published by Guerra Aguiar (see <GUER7100>), as a foundation for the study of these
issues.

Comparative study of the two issues cited in the title, pointing to the coincidences in their printing: both resulted
from war situations, both were printed in rows of five stamps, and both consisted of five printings. That’s where
the similarities end; the rest of the article is dedicated to highlighting the salient characteristics of each of the five
positions in each of the five printings of both the Mexican and Cuban stamps. The author refers the reader to

This article consists of three parts: Part I is a brief commentary on the lack of published information about the
Spanish maritime mail service with the Indies. Part II reproduces the Royal Order issued by King Carlos III of
Spain on 6 August 1764 establishing regular maritime mail service between Spain and the West Indies. Part III
reproduces the Royal Instruction of 24 August 1764 for the operation of this service between the port of La
Coruña in northern Spain and the Indies. The article is followed by a brief commentary by the editor of the
journal reflecting on the deficiencies of the maritime mail service, citing a subsequent Royal Order that tried to
correct those deficiencies, and ending with some philosophical musings on the impact of the Spanish maritime
mail service in the development of the Americas (see <VELA8709>).

Report of a U.S. postal card UPSS S14 from a Spanish-American War soldier, while in the trenches, dated July
14, 1898, and mailed from Siboney, Cuba to Ohio. The article provides background material on U.S. military and
postal activities in Cuba in relation to the message on the postal card, including portions of an 1898 report of the
U.S. Postmaster-General to Congress on the removal of the post office in Cuba to Siboney on July 6, 1898. The
card subject of the article is referred to as a "forerunner" of Cuban postal card UPSS S1 (Scott UX1).

“Duality of a U.S. possessions postal card”
Scott Stamp Monthly, June 1989, p.14, ill.

The article documents the accepted use of the same U.S. possessions postal card, Cuba Scott UX1, in the Republic
of Cuba and in the U.S. in 1903 after the U.S. occupation of Cuba ended in 1902 (then two different countries and
two different postal administrations). One postcard was sent from Havana to Switzerland, postmarked July 9,
1903, with a Cuba 1c. stamp (Scott 227) added to pay the 2c. international postcard rate; the other one was posted
from Yonkers, New York, to Turkey on March 4, 1903, with a U.S. 1c. stamp (Scott 300) also added to pay the
2c. international postcard rate. For more discussion on the validity of the use in the continental United States and
its territories and posssessions of U.S. postal stationery overprinted for use in Cuba see <AJP90304>,

Description of a plate variety of the U.S. postal card UPSS S17 (Scott UX14) which was overprinted in 1899 for
use in Cuba (Cuban postal card UPSS S1 (Scott UX1)). It is reasonable to expect that this variety may also exist
in the overprinted Cuban postal cards.

Borrowing from <ELIA8502>: A comprehensive bibliography of books and pamphlets dealing with the philately
and postal history of Spain and her former colonies. The main listing offers 1785 titles arranged chronologically
from 1514 to 1981. Most of the material is of Spanish origin, but a considerable number of foreign publications
are included. Listings are well cross-referenced and there are numerous illustrations. In addition, there are
appendices for postal route maps, revenue stamps, and periodicals (both philatelic and official). Literature listings
for the early centuries represent an outstanding record of literature likely to be of direct or tangential interest to
the postal historian. All citations of relevance to Cuban philately contained therein have been included in this
bibliography.

Although this is a catalog of proofs and essays of Spain, some of the designs of 19th century proofs and essays
were almost identical to the designs used on Cuban stamps of the Spanish administration, making the catalog very
useful as a reference for the study of Cuban proofs and essays of the period. In fact, some of the proofs and essays
illustrated could fit very well in a Cuban collection.

A comprehensive priced catalog of Cuban first flight covers. It includes national and international flights plus a
small section labeled historic and commemorative flights. Supplements to the catalog were published in AF (see
<GARC4011a>, <GARC4304b>, <GARC5304>) and in BFC (see <GARC5204>). <GARC4011a> adds flights
missed in the original catalog and updates the catalog for the period 1937 to 1940. <GARC4304b> updates the
catalog for the period 1940 to 1943. <GARC5204> comprises <GARC4011a> and <GARC4304b> and updates
the catalog from 1941, where <GARC4304b> ended, to 1951. All of these supplements follow the catalog
numbering scheme of the original catalog. <GARC5304> is a list of 12 first flights from 1936 to 1953 that are not
assigned catalog numbers. I presume it is an update of items missing from the original catalog or previous
supplements, but I have not verified this.

"First U.S. Mail Agency in Cuba"
The Gibbons Whitman Stamp Monthly, Vol.1, No.4, Dec. 1967, p.123.

Reference to U.S. Postmaster General and other documents indicating a U.S. mail agency operated in Havana from
early 1851 to June 30, 1877; and of arrangements made with the British postal service "for an exchange at Cuba of
mails from and to the West India islands, the Atlantic Coast of South America, and to points of the Gulf of Mexico
and elsewhere reached from Havana by British mail packets"--points to which U.S. mail arrangements did not
extend. The instructions for the operation of this U.S. mail agency in Havana are not known and no postmarks
from the agency have been identified. However, the article records four letters with uncancelled U.S. stamps that
could possibly have been applied by the U.S. mail agent in Havana. All letters are dated in the first half of the
1870s; two are routed through St. Thomas to Buenos Aires and also have British stamps cancelled at St. Thomas;
the other two are addressed to Spain.

Boletín Mensual Informativo (Monthly Information Bulletin)
Habana: Publicaciones Filatélicas "Guerra-Aguiar" (Philatelic Publications "Guerra-Aguiar"), published monthly,
from Yr.1, No.1, January 1957 to Yr.3, No.12, December 1959, ill., Span.

Monthly information bulletin on current and future new Cuban postal issues. The bulletin regularly reproduced the
postal orders issued by the Cuban Ministry of Communications for the production of new postal issues. The
bulletin also featured every month a section called "Historia y Filatelia Cubana" ("Cuban History and Philately")
containing a usually fairly good article on Cuban philately, and a section called "Buzón de Consultas"
("Consultation Mailbox") presenting and answering questions on Cuban philately from the readership. Another
column titled "Lo Que Dicen Nuestros Sellos" ("What Our Stamps Say") was inaugurated with the fifth issue of the
bulletin in April 1957 to provide historical background summaries of selected Cuban stamp issues. Most of the
contents of the bulletin were authored by Guerra Aguiar himself who is referred to in the bulletin as its "Director".
Occasionally, one finds contributions from other philatelists included in the bulletin, but they are sparce. In view of
this, all works in the bulletin which do not specifically name an author have been ascribed to Guerra Aguiar in this
bibliography.

The first four installments of what would have been an excellent classification of Cuban revenue stamps. The
articles stop with the 15 October 1904 issue of the RSFC and no explanation of their abrupt
cessation is found in subsequent issues of the RSFC. This is a precursor of <GUTIHJ1000> and GUTIHJ1200>,
both published in association with Antonio Barreras.

La Habana, Cuba: Published by the Círculo Filatélico de Cuba (Cuban Philatelic Circle), printed by J.A. Casanova,
1912, 255 pp., ill., Span. Limited edition in book form.

One of the most complete catalogs ever published of the revenue stamps of Cuba covering the period 1856 to 1912.
Originally started to be published serially in the RSFC where the first four installments appeared from July to
October 1904, but were discontinued thereafter without explanation (see <GUTIHJ0407>). The coverage of Cuban
revenues provided in this catalog is more extensive than Forbin's. Includes citations from official documents. It is an
indispensable reference for the Cuban revenues collector.

1st ed., 1966: Section 3 -- Cameroons to Czechoslovakia, contains 3 pp. on Cuban postal stationery, ill., priced.
2nd ed., 1974: Section 3 -- Cameroons to Czechoslovakia, contains 8 pp. on Cuban postal stationery, ill., priced.
Also listed under entries <FLAD6600> and <GAGE6600>.

The catalog covers the main issues and major varieties of Cuban postal stationery which include postal cards,
stamped envelopes, wrappers, and airmail envelopes and letter sheets. The 2nd edition of the catalog expands the
treatment of the 1st edition to include numerous minor varieties; especially of the postal cards under the Spanish
Administration. The Ascher worldwide postal stationery catalog <ASCH2500> was an important source of
information for this catalog. The Higgins & Gage catalog's numbering system is the most widely used in the
stamp trade in describing Cuban postal stationery of the Spanish Administration and the Republic, such as Scott's
is for postage stamps and Forbin is for revenues. Postal stationery of the U.S. Administration, is usually
described following the numbering systems of <UPSS7100> and <SCOTSPEC>. The catalog prices are currently
grossly outdated and are only of value as an indication of the relative value of the items listed.

Quoting <WINT9204>: “This book gives a detailed accounting of most of the early U.S. postal arrangements
with European countries. It presents a scholarly treatment of the events leading to the postal arrangements, gives
the details of the arrangements, and provides examples of covers carried under those arrangements with Hargest’s
analysis of each cover. He also shows many representative markings found on the covers. ... it is an essential
reference book in understanding the treaties with European states. Hargest makes an attempt to list all the rates to
foreign countries in two large tables at the end of the book, but his information is quite incomplete and sometimes
in error.” (See <STAR8200> for rates.) The information in this book is vital to the Cuban postal historian for the
understanding of rate markings on covers to and from Cuba to Europe via the United States.

AP, Mar 1979, pp.219-228 (10), ill.;

Overview of the 1874 Treaty of Berne which created the General Postal Union that started governing international
mail rates between participating countries on July 1, 1875, and was later modified by the 1878 Convention of
Paris which changed the name of the General Postal Union to the “Universal Postal Union”. Cuba and Puerto
Rico entered the Union on May 1, 1877, with a single weight letter rate of 5 céntimos and a postal card rate of 2
céntimos. This article discusses the application of the provisions of the Treaty through the use of various
examples. It is an essential reference for the student of Cuban postal history in understanding the rates and
regulations that governed mail with members of the GPU/UPU after May 1, 1877.

World Philatelic Periodicals
Co-author: Chester M. Smith (see <SMITC9600>)
State College, Pa.: American Philatelic Research Library, 1996, undetermined number of pages. This listing of
philatelic periodicals is a work in progress available on the World Wide Web through the Internet at the following
url: http://cac.psu.edu/~cms/periodicals/intro.html

The listing has an index in which Cuba is one of the entries. This entry in turn links automatically to a listing of
numerical pointers, each of which is the entry number of a philatelic periodical (journal) published in Cuba.
Clicking on one of these entry numbers takes you to the Web page where detailed publication information about
the journal is provided under the entry number which was clicked. The publication information provided (when
available) is the name of the journal, city in Cuba where it was published, the publisher, the starting and ending
month and year, the starting and ending volume and issue number, the whole number range, series number or
name, notes on content, notes on successor or predecessor journals, and a reference to the main source of
information for the entry. Journals on Cuban philately not published in Cuba are indexed under the country in
which they were published. The listing is based on other existing indexes, such as the index of library of the
Collectors Club of New York, so that the veracity and currency of the information is not guaranteed. All journals
included in the listing are also listed in this bibliography.

This set of articles deals with more than cancellations; it also includes FDC cachets, stamps, and labels related to
medicine from the author’s collection. The connection to medicine of some of the items included is rather
farfetched as in the case of tobacco and coffee slogans whose only tie to medicine is that their derivatives nicotine
and caffeine are drugs used in medicine. In fact, the tobacco slogans promote the consumption of Cuban tobacco
which, if anything, is medicinally contraindicated. The purist, however, can eliminate those items with a distant
connection to medicine and end with a very good sampling of items related to medicine in Cuban philately.

This is similar to <IGLEM8312> and <IGLEM8403>, but concentrating on Cuban slogan cancellations related to
medicine. It again includes some slogans whose connection to medicine is rather farfetched as explained in the
annotation to <IGLEM8403>. Nonetheless, this is a very good survey of Cuban slogan cancellations related to
medicine that this time includes some from the Castro era. The article illustrates all cancellations cited and
provides known periods of use.

pages, ill., Span. Reprinted in <IZQU7407>.

Comments on the occasion of the 125th anniversary of the first railroad inaugurated in Spain from Barcelona to
Mataró pointing to the fact that a railroad had already been inaugurated 11 years before in the Spanish colony of
Cuba from the city of Habana to the town of Güines (misspelled Güimes in the article) for the transport of sugar
cane. The article points several details of the Cuban railroad, including the fact that mail was transported and that
a section in one of the passenger cars was dedicated to the mail service. The article derives its title from the fact
that it indicates that in 1937 Cuba issued a surcharged stamp (Yvert 254, Scott 355) commemorating the
Centennary of Cuban railroads.

Letter to the editor disputing a statement in <FOST7101> on the analysis of the routing of the cover shown in
<P7007>. Mr. Jewell contends that the cover in question probably travelled from Cienfuegos to Havana by coastal
vessel instead of by land, arguing that the land route at that time "would have been long, difficult, and dangerous as
well as very slow". His argument is incorrect; Cienfuegos is a city in the southern coast of Cuba and Havana is in
the northern coast making the trip by sea around the tip of the island extremely long, very slow, and more
dangerous than the land route--especially since at the time there existed a long established and reliable railroad
service between the two cities. Moreover, Mr. Jewell supports his argument of a coastal routing with a discussion
of postal rates which is incorrect.

Winter Park, Florida: The Authors, 1982, 87 pp., 4 photo plates, other illustrations.

Excellent specialized catalog of the philatelic material of Cuba during the Spanish colonial period. It includes an
introduction titled “Pre-Philately” which is really a very high level overview of the evolution of the mail system
during the Spanish Administration. The main part of the catalog is Section 1 covering the regular postage stamp
issues. This is followed by separate sections on bogus stamps, cinderella stamps, fakes and forgeries, official
stamps, stationery, telegraph stamps, Cuban stamps used in other countries, a catalog concordance, and four plates
of photos. For stamps the concordance is between the Jones-Roy catalog and Scott, Gibbons, Yvert, and Guerra
catalog numbering systems; for postal stationery the concordance is between the Jones-Roy catalog and the
Higgins & Gage catalog.

faked stamps. The U.S. overprinted issues include the correct dates of issue, plate varieties, and plate numbers
used. The stamps issued for Cuba are completely described, including the first booklet issued for use in Cuba.
Postal stationery listings include all knives and papers, known quantities, plus a listing of the Specimen envelopes

Excellent specialized unpriced catalog of the stamps of the Republic of Cuba into the first few issues of the Castro
government. Postage, airmail, special delivery, postage due, and postal tax stamps are listed in the main body in
chronological order. Special sections on cinderellas (pp.255-259), fakes and forgeries (pp.261-265), post office
seals (pp.267-270), postal stationery (pp.271-291), “souvenirs” issued by the Government (pp.293-294), and
telegraph stamps (pp.295-297) follow the main body of the catalog. Since the catalog uses its own numbering
system, several catalog number concordance tables are provided at the back of the catalog. For stamps the
concordance is between the Jones-Roy catalog and Scott, Gibbons, Yvert, and Guerra catalog numbering systems;
for postal stationery the concordance is between the Jones-Roy catalog and Higgins & Gage and Guerra; for post
office seals and telegraph stamps the concordance is between the Jones-Roy catalog and Yvert and Guerra. The
catalog provides descriptive and printing information for each issue, exact date of issue when known, listing of all
values in each issue, quantities of each printed, plate number information, and major known varieties. This is the
most comprehensive specialized catalog of Cuban stamps published to date.

Miami, Florida: Edited and published by Pedro M. Rodríguez, May 1990, 155 pp., ill., Span. & Eng. 200 copies
printed. See <MART9104> for book review that appeared in the PLR.

This is the first comprehensive catalog of Cuban revenue stamps since the Forbin catalog of 1915 and is a
monumental accomplishment on the part of Messrs. Jones and Rodríguez on behalf of the philately of Cuban
revenue stamps. I mention Messrs. Jones and Rodríguez jointly because I am a witness to the tremendous
contribution that Mr. Rodríguez made to the catalog with a superb job of editing and publishing on top of the usual
magnificent research work done by Mr. Jones. This work is an essential reference for the student and collector of
Cuban revenues.

“World’s earliest overprints include successful Cuban postal forgery”
LINN, 7 Feb 1983, p.?, ill.

Article debating which is the world’s second earliest overprint on a stamp, claiming the first overprint was created
in 1846 on a local carrier stamp from New York City. After considering a couple of candidates, one from Haiti
and another from Mauritius, the article gives the honor of being “philately’s second earliest overprint” to Cuba’s
“Y 1/4” overprint on the 2 reales stamp of the first issue of Cuba issued for use in the local delivery service within
the city of Havana which commenced in November 19, 1855. The article fails to mention that the Cuban
overprint is the world’s first overprint officially issued by a country’s postal administration. The article also
incorrectly states that these overprints were applied to the 2 reales stamps of the second and fourth issue, when in
actuality they were applied to the 2 reales stamps of the first and third issue. Then the article goes on to the
subject of its title, giving a report of the Matanzas “postmaster’s forgery” which the postmaster at Matanzas
created by buying 2 reales stamps overprinted “Y 1/4” in Havana, paying 1/4 of a real for each, erasing the
overprints as best possible, and then disguising the forgeries by applying a heavy oval grid cancellation on top of
the erasures at the time of sale of the stamps to the public. The article implies that these Matanzas “postmaster’s
forgeries” occurred on the “Y 1/4” overprints of the first issue, when in fact these forgeries are only know to exist
on “Y 1/4” overprints of the third issue. Finally, note that the Y 1/4 “overprints” discussed in this article are
technically consired to be “surcharges” because they changed the face value of the stamp.

“Holiday inspires Christmas stamp topic”
LINN, 24 Dec 1990, p.18.

Small reference to Cuban stamps which we quote in its entirety: “Even countries where Christians are a minority
have issued stamps to commemorate Christmas. From 1960 until 1970, Cuba issued Christmas stamps, usually in
15-stamp se-tenant sets, that featured colorful flora and fauna. Since 1970, Cuba has not celebrated Christmas, so
there have been no recent Christmas commemoratives from there.” The misstatement in the first sentence led to a
response in the January 21, 1991, “Readers’ Opinion” section of Linn’s (see <MISK9101>).

Report of the theft on Dec 11-12, 1992, of a considerable holding of Cuban classical material from the Cuban
National Postal Museum in Havana by a museum employee, Alejandro Ruiz Piedra, who took the material to
Mexico and subsequently travelled to the U.S. where he attempted to sell some of the material. The article gives a
summary of the Cuban material stolen and illustrates a combination cover sent to Barcelona, Spain, via the U.S.
bearing a 50 c. 1875 Cuban stamp and four U.S. stamps.

therein, which illustrates an 18 March 1851 folded letter written on stationery from the “Fragata ‘Hispano-

located in El Viso del Marqués in the region of La Mancha, Spain, pertaining to the maritime mails with America
or “Correos de Yndias” (Indies Posts). The article mentions that in this archive there are 63 bundles of documents
pertaining to the transport of correspondence to and from America by the ships of the Royal Navy from 1764 to
1900. Of special interest is a document dated 10 April 1803 specifying the routes that mail carrying ships
departing from the port of La Coruña in Galicia, Spain, should follow to South America and the Caribbean to
ensure that no place of importance to the flow of mail to and from America is missed. This document is
transcribed in the article in its entirety and a diagram illustrating the various routes that the mail ships must follow
is included.

The title of this article is incorrect--the overprinted stamps were not really Cuban, they were the Antilles stamps
(labelled “Ultramar”) issued by Spain for common use in Cuba and Puerto Rico. The article is not relevant to
Cuba philately other than for the fact that it states that these Antilles stamps were being bought in Cuba for paper
currency for resale at a profit in Puerto Rico where they could only be bought with gold.

Phantom Philately
London: The Philatelic Institute, 1923, 204 pp., ill. Cuban forgeries on pp.83-86. See entry <MELV5000> for
reprint.

Revised and expanded version of a series of individual articles originally published in Stamp Lover. Also
believed to have been reprinted by Emile Bertrand, Lucerne. The listings under Cuba discuss the revolutionary
stamps of 1874 and 1896 (<EDIFILc> Correo Insurrecto stamps Nos.1 and 2-5), the 1874 "CUBA LIBRA" labels
issued by the Cuban revolutionary junta in Philadelphia bearing a Cuban flag, and three unidentified overprinted
stamps circa 1906 from the province of Cienfuegos. The entry questions the actual use of the 1874 and 1896
correo insurrecto stamps to frank mail, stating there is no evidence that they ever saw service in Cuba (this is
incorrect; see <ROBEP8803>). A reference is also made to some other republican stamps of the same period
bearing portraits of Martí, Gómez, Maceo, and García reported in the Philadelphia Inquirer (later reprinted in the
Daily Stamp Item), but these remain unidentified and their actual existence and use questioned. The account of
the flag labels refers to them as possible "philatelic fictions" and is basically an extract from the Englishman of
Calcutta, reprinted in the Philatelic World of April 16, 1896. The extract describes the stamps, but only mentions
four of the five issued and incorrectly identifies the 20 c. stamp as being black instead of brown (the missing 50 c.
stamp is the black one).

October 1987), pp.31-39, ill., Span.

Study of the postal marking "ESPAÑA", denoting place of origin, applied to all maritime mail from Spain to its
West Indies by Royal Order of King Charles III of Spain in 1764. The article establishes that besides the marking
devices used at the point of origin in the port of La Coruña, Spain, copies of the marking devices were sent to all
points where Spanish maritime mails were handled in the Americas to so mark any mail passing through which
had not been properly marked at its origin. In particular, the article establishes the existence of such a marking
device in Havana from an inventory taken in 1765 by don José de Armona, administrator of posts in Havana
(p.33) and describes but does not illustrate the Havana marking's characteristics (p.37).

fiscals of Cuba. Reference is made to the official authorization of the use of the 1868 10c. bistre Giro stamp
(Forbin Giro No.1) for franking correspondence during 1873, 1874, and 1875 and the 1881 12 1/2c. green Giro
stamp (Forbin Giro No.55) for franking correspon-dence during 1881. Reference is also made to the issuance by
Cuba of stamp booklets of 1c. and 2c. stamps in the middle of 1905 (the 2c. stamp booklet referred to is Scott
234a, but no 1c. booklet exists from that period).

“Cuba--Centenario del Primer Sello” (“Cuba--Centennary of the First Stamp”)
MF, Yr.XLIX, No.562, May 1955, pp.112-113, ill., Span. Reprint of <BOHE5505>.

Article highlights two anniversaries of great significance to Cuban philately: the centennary of the first postage
stamps used in Cuba and the 50th anniversary of the first set of stamps issued by the Republic of Cuba in 1905.
The article describes both stamp issues and the set of stamps issued by the Cuban Ministry of Communications to
commemorate the centennary of the first postage stamps (Scott 539-542, C110-C113). The article also mentions
in passing the last stamp issue of the Spanish Administration known as the stamps of the “Autonomía”

M-7 8/22/2008
(autonomy) from the type of government implanted in the island during the years 1898-1899. It incorrectly states
that these stamps were in circulation until the 23rd of April of 1905, when in fact these stamps were replaced by
the stamps of the U.S. Administration in 1899.

<MPC> Museo Postal Cubano (Cuban Postal Museum)

The Cuban Postal Museum added its imprimatur to numerous articles published anonymously in Filatelia Cubana
(FCb) under the section heading "Colaboraciones del Museo Postal Cubano" ("Collaborations of the Cuban Postal
Museum"). These articles are listed in this bibliography under keys of the type <FCbyymm>. Many of these
articles were probably contributed by the Museum's Director at the time, José Luis Guerra Aguiar and some can
be traced directly to him because they are reprints from his Boletín Mensual Informativo (BMI). Anonymous
works published under the imprimatur of the Cuban Postal Museum in other publications or as monographs are
listed under keys of the type <MPCyymm> found below.

NPM, Vol.1, No.5, issued in connection with the Pan-American Stamp Exhibition held in Philadelphia from April
9 to May 13, 1949. The Cuban flag and coat-of-arms are shown and described on p.39.

The article gives a brief history of the origins of the Cuban flag and illustrates and describes both the Cuban flag
and coat-of-arms. Although not philatelic, this item is cited for the benefit of topical collectors because both the
Cuban flag and coat-of-arms appear on several Cuban stamps. In particular: 1) the set Scott 458-461, C41-C43,
and E13, commemorates the centennary of the adoption of the flag; 2) the set <EDIFILd> 1242-1247 shows the
Cuban coat-of-arms as part of Cuban coins; and 3) <EDIFILd> 1382 shows the coat-of-arms itself.

"Silent Items"

Report of the discovery that Cuba Scott 130 exists in the first retouch as well as in the third; adding to the list of
varieties of the reengraved issues of Cuba of the late 1880s published by Donald A. King in a recent issue (at the
time) of MK. The report is inaccurate: in the first place, there is no third retouch of the issues mentioned; and in
the second place, there is only one Scott 130, 10c blue of 1888, and it is of the type currently classified by Scott
as of the first retouch.

town with its early history. In Vol.2, the section on post offices (pp.149-160) and railways (pp.329-373) are
excellent. In all, a monumental work and easily the most important geographical and census reference on Cuba

“Y 1/4 -- Y Nació la Primera Sobrecarga del Mundo”
(“Y 1/4 -- And the First Surcharge of the World Was Born”)
PF, No.42, Jan-Mar 1954, p.10, Span. Probably written by the editor and publisher of PF José Majo Tocabens.

Account of the circumstances that led to the creation of the World’s first surcharge on a stamp (Scott 5-8) and
explanation of the meaning of the “Y 1/4” with a discussion of various erroneous interpretations. It is worth
noting that the article states that the setting of the surcharges for the plate of 170 stamps was made on the basis of
100 surcharges. This statement is not explained any further and its meaning is unknown. Current belief is that
narrow “Ys” were used in setting the surcharges of the first seven rows of 17 stamps (7 x 17 = 119 stamps) of the
plate and wide “Ys” were used for the remaining 3 rows (see <KOUR9701>).

several stamps of the Puerto Príncipe issues (not specifically identified). Opinion that the rarest Puerto Príncipe
stamps are the narrow 3c. on 2m. orange brown (Scott 179G) (3 copies known) and the narrow 5c. on 1m. blue

been Scott 235--a number that has been missing from the listing of Cuban stamps in Scott catalog since the 1905-

"Habilitados de Puerto Príncipe" ("Surcharges of Puerto Príncipe")

Letter to the editor in which Mr. Power states his belief that the Puerto Príncipe surcharges are all fabrications of
speculators and were never legally sanctioned by the proper authorities for postal use.

"Datos sobre los sellos de Antillas Españolas" ("Some facts about Spanish Antilles stamps")
CA, 3rd Epoch, No.2, 15 Aug 1899, pp.12-15, Span.

Discussion of the differences between the first three issues of stamps for Cuba under the Spanish administration
and varieties in color and paper existing in them. The article challenges the view expressed by Fernández Duro in
<FERND8100> that these three issues can really be considered to be one issue printed in various papers.

("Some facts about Spanish Antilles stamps. Part II. 1855")
CA, 3rd Epoch, No.3, 15 Sep 1899, pp.41-45, ill., Span.

Continues discussion of paper and color varieties of the first issue of Spanish Cuba in <POWE89908>, but
focuses on the interior mail service for the city of Havana using 2 reales stamps of 1855 which were surcharged Y
1/4 pending the arrival of 1/4 real stamps ordered from Spain. Details of the legislation authorizing the stamps,
their printing, gives measurements of the narrow and wide varieties, and correctly rejects the existence of the
surcharge on 2 r. stamps of the second issue printed on paper with watermark of crossed lines. However, the
article contains some erroneous information about the surcharged stamps. First, it states that the narrow and wide
varieties resulted from different printings when one printing was exhausted. The fact is that both types of

8/22/2008 P-18
surcharges were used together in the printing of each sheet. Second, it states that the surcharged stamps were
used to frank circulars throughout the entire island, which as far as I know is not true. Third, it states that the
surcharged stamps were seen used as postage due stamps on incoming foreign mail. Such usage I have not seen
reported elsewhere; I can only surmise that the author may have seen a privately carried letter from abroad which
was posted within the city of Havana by the carrier upon arrival.

"Habilitados de Puerto Príncipe. Réplica"
("Surcharges of Puerto Príncipe. Reply")
CA, 3rd Epoch, No.3, 15 Sep 1899, pp.45-46, Span.

Reply to <BARR89908> in which Dr. Barreras presents evidence legitimizing the use of the Puerto Príncipe
surcharges in opposition to the views presented by Mr. Power in <POWE89906>. In this reply, Mr. Power
reiterates his belief that the surcharges were speculative and not legally valid, but fails to provide any arguments
of substance to support his convictions.

Discussion of the color and paper varieties in the second and third issues of Spanish Cuba. The article reiterates
the assertion made in <POWE89909a> that the Y 1/4 surcharges do not exist on stamps of the second issue with
watermark of crossed lines and gives details and measurements of the Y 1/4 surcharges used on the 2 r.p. stamps
of the third issue (Scott 15). The article ends with details on the 1/4 r.p. issue of 1862-64 which replaced the
surcharged stamps (Scott 16).

Filderstadt, West Germany: Rainer Haberer Airmail Auctions, catalog of the 15th auction, 25 Apr 1987, p.25,
text in German.

Lot 460, listed under USA in p.25, was a cover carried by the U.S. Army Pan-American Good Will Flight which
departed from Oakland, California, 21 Dec 1926, and visited México, every nation of Central and South America,
the Caribbean (including Cuba), and ended in Washington, D.C., 2 May 1927. The catalog does not illustrate the
cover, but I obtained photocopies of the front and back of the cover, and of an accompanying affidavit by the
plane's crew certifying its authenticity.

Page 114 is an introductory overview of the determination of need for this identifier and its scope. It also
identifies Hilario González as the postal employee charged with its production. The initial scope of the identifier
is to list the names of the towns or farms that are served by the postal service, indicate their classification (e.g.
town, sugar mill, farm), the municipality and province to which they belong (“partido, ayuntamiento y
provincia”), their means of communication for postal purposes (e.g., railroad line, steamship line, mail run), and
the point of receipt of correspondence and telegrams (name of railroad station or post office). The identifier ends
with publication of the last number of RGC at the letter “N”.

The Peter A. Robertson Collection of Cuba--Insurrection and Puerto Príncipe Issues
New York: Christie's-Robson Lowe, Auction Sale, Tuesday, March 15, 1988, 58 pp., profusely illustrated.

Catalog of the auction sale of the greatest collection of insurrection and Puerto Príncipe issues ever assembled.
The collection is remarkable for its completeness and for the incomparable number of covers of these issues that
Mr. Robertson was able to acquire. The catalog contains an extremely detailed description of the material and is
beautifully illustrated, and thus constitutes an excellent handbook for the collector/student of these issues. Note,
however, that the Puerto Príncipe issues are organized according to Scott's U.S. Specialized catalog listings of the
five printings of these issues which do not correspond to those listed by Guerra Aguiar in <GUER7100>. Also
note that some of the Puerto Príncipe stamps in the collection may not be genuine--for example, lots 2143, 2188,
and 2199 were stamps of the 5th printing of January 11, 1899, but have December cancellations. The bulk of the
collection was bought by Dr. Yamil Kouri (the father). Ignacio Prats was the second largest purchaser. The
remainder went to isolated bidders.

following information for each post office listed: current and previous (if any) names; earliest known date of
operation; whether it was in operation in 1898, 1940, and 1960; post office classification (1st to 5th class; urban
or rural) and unique identifying code number; the means of communication available to the post office at the time
of its last known date of operation (access by road, railroad, air, and sea with types of roads and railroads
differentiated); and the services available at the post office. Post offices are listed alphabetically by province and
a combined alphabetical cross index of all post offices is also provided. Essential reference for the researcher.

Brief synopsis of the development of the postal services in Cuba from the earliest attempts of the Spanish
administration to establish formal postal communications through the various measures taken to make the service
more widespread and reliable during that administration, continuing through the brief period of U.S.
administration which brought major innovations, and the Republican era which continued developing the postal

This is a major update and enhancement of <RODR8605> and is an essential reference for the serious researcher
of Cuban postal markings. No attempt is made to cover the period after 1960 due to the lack of reliable
information available outside of Cuba. This edition consists of the following four sections:
I. A Brief Story of the Development of the Postal Services in Cuba
II. Catalog of Post Offices (alphabetically listed by provinces)
III. Alphabetical Listing of Post Offices (all provinces combined)
IV. General Index and Bibliography
Item I is a brief synopsis of the development of the postal services in Cuba from the earliest attempts of the
Spanish administration to establish formal postal communications, through the various measures taken by the
Spanish, U.S., and Republican administrations to make the Cuban postal service more widespread and reliable.
Item I is a reprint of <RODR9107> with minor updates.
Item II is an update of the main listing of post offices contained in the first edition of the catalog with some
additions and corrections. It represents a comprehensive listing of all known Cuban post offices
in operation from 1764 to 1960 and provides the following information (if available) for each post office listed:
current and previous (if any) names; the official code number uniquely identifying the post office; known periods
of operation, including earliest known date of operation and last date of operation for those ceasing operations;
post office classification (1st to 5th class; urban or rural); the means of communication available to the post office
at the time of its last known date of operation (access by road, railroad, air, and sea with types of roads and
railroads differentiated); and the services available at the post office with an indication of the nearest post office
where additional listed services were available. Postal markings from some of the listed post offices are
illustrated on the right margin of each page, but these are just samples and are not meant to be comprehensive.

8/22/2008 R-8
Item III is a combined alphabetical index of all post offices with identification of the province to which each post
office belongs and the page of the catalog where the detailed information about it can be found. Item IV is a one
page section index of the major sections of the catalog followed by a one and a half page bibliography.
One difference with <RODR8605> is in the listing for the period of operation of each post office: whereas
<RODR8605> only indicated earliest year of operation and whether the post office was also operational in 1898,
1940, and 1960, this new edition indicates periods of operation and dates of closing when known.

Memoriam on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the birth of renowned Cuban philatelist and friend, Dr. Cruz
Planas. Contains one page of biographical notes on Dr. Cruz Planas. One clarification needs to be made with
respect to the last statement made in the article that Dr. Cruz Planas' last demonstration of love for Cuban
philately is reflected in the donation upon his death of his extensive and valuable Cuba collection to the Cuban
Postal Museum: irrespective of his desires, at the time of his death in 1966, the Cuban revolutionary government
of Fidel Castro would have anyway confiscated his collection immediately upon his death. This is not to say that
if he had died in other times, knowing of his generosity and devotion to Cuban philately, he would have done
otherwise.

"Grandes Piezas" ("Showpieces")
BNJ, No.7, Dec 1983, p.10, ill., Span.

Description of the only known vertical strip of Scott Nos.5 and 6 and the only known vertical strip of Scott Nos.7
and 8, which prove that the wide and narrow Ys of the Y 1/4 1855 surcharge, both appeared on the same sheet of
stamps. Both vertical pieces discussed span rows 7 and 8 of the sheet. The article notes that the existence of
these two pieces and that of a block of 12 stamps (4 columns by 3 rows) in the Cuban Postal Museum bearing
only the wide Ys and belonging to the last three rows of a sheet of these stamps, seems to imply that the narrow
Ys were used in the surcharges of the first 7 rows of the sheet and the wide Ys were used in the last three rows.
However, this logical deduction cannot be definitely corroborated due to the lack of surviving multiples and
blocks of these stamps. See <KOUR9701b> for another treatment of this topic.

"Cuba y la Compañía Trasatlántica Española"
("Cuba and the Spanish Trans-Atlantic Company")
BNJ, No.10, Jun 1984, pp.3-8 (6), ill., Span. with Eng. summary on p.21.

Brief history of the “Compañía Trasatlántica Española” which on September 11, 1861, was awarded a contract to
carry the mails between Spain and the Caribbean islands of Cuba, Puerto Rico, and Santo Domingo. The
acquisition of a lot of over 200 Cuban covers dated between 1880 and 1890 provided a few carried by this
company that had a violet handstamp in the upper left corner indicating the ship carried them. Most of these
covers came from correspondence of “Rafecas & Co.”, wholesalers in Havana, and were addressed to Barcelona,
Spain.
It is believed that the ship markings were not applied at the post office but at the Rafecas company headquarters in
Havana to expedite processing of the mail. This article draws from and expands on the information contained
<SHEL7609>. Examples of the covers are reproduced as well as the markings known by Shelly and others. The

LA LINEA MILITAR DEL JUCARO A MORON" from the government of the military road stretching from the
towns of Júcaro to Morón. The fortified path cutting the island in the middle from North to South, was built by
the Spanish military authorities during the so-called Ten Years War of 1868-1878 to prevent the rebellion in the
western part of the island from spreading to the east and was successful in containing the war and bringing it to its
end. Even though the Spanish troops in Cuba counted 70,000 soldiers at the height of the war, the two pieces
subject of the article are the only known examples bearing the military cancellation shown.

R-19 8/22/2008
Article on the usage of 7 pre-stamp period lineal town postmarks on covers bearing stamps from the first two
stamp issues of 1855-64 (Scott 1-4, 9-11). The article discusses the use of lineal town postmarks in general and
their replacement with the "BAEZA" type circular date stamp starting in 1842 and on through 1860 or
thereabouts. By the time adhesive stamps started to be used in Cuba, the "BAEZA" circular date stamps had
virtually replaced the lineal town postmarks, thus the rarity of the envelopes discussed in the article. The article
lists all known lineal town postmarks used in Cuba as well as all of the known Cuban "BAEZA" postmarks. See

"El Tren Aéreo Internacional 50 Años Después"
("The International Sky Train 50 Years Later")
BNJ, No.15, Apr 1985, pp.3-19 (17), ill., Span. with Eng. summary on p.31.

Extensive article on the pair of stamps issued to commemorate and partially finance the world's first international
sky train flight from Miami to Havana on 14 May 1935 (Scott C16-C17). The article starts with a report of the
auctioning of a complete sheet of Scott C17 by the Philatelic Club of the Republic of Cuba in 1960 during the
National Philatelic Exhibition "CUBEX '60". The sheet was sold at $400 to stamp dealer Ricardo del Campo who
subsequently divided it into blocks, pairs, and singles for sale to his clients. At the time it was surmised that only
half a dozen sheets of Scott C17 still existed. The article then provides a detailed historical account of the flight
with details of its conception, preparations, financing, execution, ensuing festivities, and flight back to Miami on
May 19. This is followed by details of the stamps themselves and the various commemorative flight covers that
were prepared and flown on the sky train. Finally, the article provides an extensive discussion of the discovery of
a sheet of Scott C16 with a double surcharge by a lucky collector and recounts the polemic that ascertaining its
authenticity caused, including contradicting opinions by two experts and its declaration to be a forgery by the
Cuban postal authorities based on the opinion of one of the experts. But that was not the end of the matter: the
stamps were printed in plates of 200 and divided into two sheets of 100 stamps each, and sometime later another
collector came forth with the sister sheet of the double surcharge. Samples from this second

8/22/2008 R-20
sheet were submitted to the postal authorities to further pursue the question of the authenticity of the double
surcharge, but apparently the matter was dropped because no official ruling as to their authenticity was ever made.
Today the double surcharges on stamps from both sheets are held to be genuine, but anyone offered one should
submit it for certification because philatelic forgeries are also known to exist.

Report of little known varieties, resulting from cracked clichés, in the 1 rpf value of Cuba's first stamp design.
The cracked clichés occupied 15 different positions in the printing plate. Three of them appeared in the first
printings (Scott 2); the rest are only recognizable in the printings done in unwatermarked paper after the printing
plate was acid-cleaned in 1862 (Scott 13). Each of the 15 positions is illustrated and plated.

"Cuba: Los Sellos de $2 y S5" ("Cuba: The $2 and $5 Stamps")
BNJ, No.16, Jun 1985, pp.18-21, ill., Span. with Eng. summary on p.27.

Article noting the fact that no Cuban stamp of denomination higher than $1 was issued during by the Republic
until 1953 in which $2 and $5 stamps (Scott C77-C78) were issued to facilitate payment of high frankings.
During the Spanish administration, the 1898 stamp issue included a $2 value (Scott 175), but the issue was in
circulation for only a short period of time due to the Spanish-American War and no copies of the $2 value are
known to exist used on cover. The article also discusses the complaints that the issuing of the stamps in sheets of
30 stamps generated among collectors of full sheets, since the cost of both values in full sheets of $210, was the
equivalent of an average monthly salary in those days. This was taken into consideration by the postal authorities
two years later in 1955 when they issued new $2 and $5 stamps (Scott C120-C121) and sold them in sheets of 10
stamps each at a total cost of $70 for a set of sheets. Shown in the article are a set of three die proofs of Scott
C77-C78, showing progressive development of the design.

Correspondence from Hector Juárez Figueredo of Camagüey, Cuba, reporting another error of fact in the 1954
Cuban patriots issue (refer to original report in <ASSE8506>). The 8c stamp shows the incorrect year of death
for General Ignacio Agramonte: he died in 1873 and not in 1871 as is indicated in the stamp. Mr. Juárez also
shares the research that he and other Cuban philatelists are doing on the 1898 "Autonomía" post cards (H&G 28-
35). With reference to these postal cards, we must point out that Mr. Juárez in his correspondence is confusing
the meaning of Types I, II, and III in Ascher and H&G (which refer to the serif on the "r" of the abbreviation "Sr."
and the relative position of the "S" in the same abbreviation with reference to the "T" of "Tarjeta Postal") with the
meaning of Types A and B in <JONE8200>, p.68, (which refer to the spacing between the 1st and 2nd address
lines being either 10 or 17 mm.). This error is unnoticed by Rosende and carried over to a report of subsequent
correspondence in <ROSE8512c>. Mr. Juárez also shares his research in trying to establish the actual date of
issue of the Columbus stamped envelopes printed on paper without the US POD watermark at the beginning of
the Republican era (H&G 8A-10A). A call for help in gathering information about all of these items of Cuban
postal stationery is made to all philatelists specializing in the area.

"Del Editor..." ("From the Editor...")
BNJ, No.19, Dec 1985, p.2, Span. with Eng. summary on p.24.

Editorial prompted by observations made by several judges at the SEPAD 85 National Stamp Exhibition held in
Philadelphia during November 1985 about the lack of literature on Cuban philately published in English, making
it difficult for judges to prepare themselves adequately to judge Cuban philatelic exhibits. Rosende agrees with
this observation, points out that this is especially true with respect to the Republican era, and calls for the support
of philatelists specializing in that period in submitting articles for publication in the BNJ. It is ironic to observe
that this issue of the BNJ was the last that Rosende would edit due to an extremely busy schedule and lack of
support from others.

Historical account of the maritime mail service operated by the “Empresa de Correos Marítimos” of Havana from
1827 until 1851 (25 years) and the various markings that were used to identify correspondence carried in their
ships. The article then focuses on a recently discovered and previously unrecorded “Correo Marítimo No.9”
marking submitted for expertization to the Philatelic Foundation of New York and speculates on how this
marking might have come about since it is known that there was no ship or sailing of the Empresa that used that
number. After discussion of some possible explanations for its existence, the article concludes that the marking
probably resulted from an error and provides two possible explanations for its generation. See <ROSE8512c> for
a previous reference regarding the existence of Correo Marítimo No.9. See <PINI9404> for irrefutable proof that
a Correo Marítimo No.9 did in fact exist.

"Missing Grommet on Cuba Card Also?"
POSS, Vol.8, No.1, WNo.27, 1st Quarter, 1985, p.11.

Brief article noting a reported variety of U.S. 1c. card Scott UX16 with missing grommet on top of the insignia
and stipulating that the variety probably exists on Cuban post cards Scott UX2 (UPSS S2 or Jones-Roy PC 39)
which were made by overprinting the U.S. Scott UX16, "CUBA, 2 c. de Peso". The author reports that he has
found the variety on the revalued (with perforated "1") Republic issue card and requests collectors of Cuban
postal stationery to check their collections and report any instances of the variety. (The variety exists--see
<ROY8507>).

"Missing Grommet Follow-up"
POSS, Vol.8, No.3, WNo.29, 3rd Quarter, 1985, pp.7-8, ill.

Brief article acknowledging responses to <ROY8501> confirming the existence of the "missing grommet variety
on Cuba U.S. Administration post cards Scott UX2 and on the revalued perforated "1" c. Republic cards. The
article references a detailed discussion of the missing grommet variety in <BOZA7501> which concludes that the
variety is known completely missing in one position of the 40 that make up the plate, is partially missing on two
others, and is flawed to a lesser degree on four others.

Bureau Issue"
BS, Vol.18, No.5, WNo.207, May 1947, pp.108-109, 116. [Need better photocopy]

Report of the discovery of a matched set of four position panes of 25 stamps each of the 10 centavos orange, Cuba
special delivery stamp (Scott E3), making a complete 100-subject sheet, with the imprint “Bureau of Engraving
and Printing”, bearing plate number 1432 and printed on watermarked paper with the double line watermark “U S
- C”.
The author claims these stamps were unlisted at the time in the “B.I.A. Plate Number Check List” and states his
belief that they should be listed in the U.S. Specialized Catalog as a major variety. However, the plate reported in
the article was reported in July 19, 1902 in the Metropolitan Philatelist--[need to get a copy of the MP article to
verify these facts].

"Cuban Philatelists Protest Presentation Sheets of Imperforate Democracy Issues"
S, Vol.41, No.5, WNo.529, 31 Oct 1942, p.154.

Report of the presentation of full imperforate sheets of the set of Cuba's Pro Democracia stamps (Scott 368-372)
to David Joffo, who was so honored because he supposedly had suggested the idea for the
set and that of the Fifth Column stamps (Scott 375-379) to the Cuban Government. Another set of full
imperforate sheets was given to Mr. Joffo for conveyance to President Roosevelt as a gift from President Batista.
Cuban philatelists were enraged about these gifts and the Cuban Philatelic Club sent a letter of protest to the
Minister of Communications demanding the issuance of substantial amounts of these stamps in imperforate
condition for the general public. The protest seems to have worked because the imperforate stamps were issued.

(International Stamp Auction: 6-7 March 1990)
Barcelona, Spain: Soler & Llach subastas internacionales, s.a. international auction held 6-7 March 1990.

Cuba in lots 1865-2034, but also of interest was the Puerto Rico material in lots 2035-2268 some of it consisting
of Antilles material common to Cuba and Puerto Rico. Most of the Puerto Rico material came from the collection
of Dr. Antonio M. Longo, of Alexandria, Virginia, and can be traced back to the Preston, García Lomas, and
Tows collections. See <SGAG8102> for a direct trace of Dr. Longo’s collection to that of García Lomas.

Barcelona, Spain: Soler & Llach subastas internacionales, s.a. Catalog of the international auction held
December 15, 1995, containing 487 lots, profusely illustrated, in Spanish, bidding in U.S. dollars. Prices realized
handwritten on the margin during the auction.

Outstanding auction dedicated in its entirety to first class Cuban material covering the pre-philatelic period,
British and French postal agency mail, maritime shipping company mail, Cuban forwarders, and the philately of
the Spanish colonial period, the U.S. Administration, and the Republic. The strength of the auction was in the
19th century material, especially the stamps and covers of the Spanish colonial period. The U.S. Administration
period was only four lots plus a collection of postal stationery of both the U.S. Administration and the Republic
which did not sell. The material of the republic included an outstanding selection of booklets and booklet panes,
a complete set of the Cuban inverts, and a few other proofs and essays, but did not have great breadth. Included
also were an outstanding collection of telegraph stamps with proofs and essays and a similarly outstanding
collection of revenues (the first one sold, the latter didn’t). Even though the auction was advertised as containing
the entirety of Dr. Ibáñez’s collection, significant parts of it were missing as determined from talking to various
persons that knew the contents of his collection and could not find key items from it in the catalog. An example
of this could be observed in lot 210, an accumulation of material from the 1855-60 first three issues of Isabel II
from which all the 2r. stamps with loop watermark were missing and all but one strip of 10 with the sheet header
of the 2r. stamps without watermark were also missing--items which certainly were not missing from a collection
of the caliber of Dr. Ibáñez’s collection. I attended the auction, studied the material offered for several days
before the auction, and bought a considerable amount of the stamps and covers of the Spanish Administration and
of the booklets and booklet panes of the Republic.

Comments by the editor on a government announcement of the auction of excess quantities of Cuban postal items
so as to make them available to philatelists. The postal items included postage, telegraph, and postage due
stamps, stamp booklets, reply coupons, and postal stationery. The article lists the quantities of each denomination
of the postage stamps to be auctioned, but does not indicate the issues to which they correspond nor does it

indicate quantities or denominations for the other postal species. Finally, the article indicates that a subsequent
inquiry with the postal administration revealed that the intended auction never took place and that the subject
postal items were destroyed--a course of action that the editor commends, believing that excess postal species
should not be subject to commercialization by the government because it would be detrimental to the seriousness
of Cuban postal issues.

Account of the first successful overseas international flight on 11 August 1928, by Mexican aviator Roberto
Fierro in a Mexican-built aircraft, a non-stop flight of 12 hours and 40 minutes, from Mexico City? (not explicitly
identified in the article) to Columbia Airfield in Havana, Cuba. The plane then went on to fly from Cuba to
Guatemala probably on August 23 (date not certain) and other Central American Republics thereafter. References

No mention is made of any commemorative, commercial, or private mail flown on the Mexico-Cuba leg of the
flight.

Notice of the inadvertent release of imperforate sheets of Scott Nos.274 and 275 by the post office and their
subsequent release of additional stocks of those imperforates to thwart speculation with the error; thus creating

Correction of the number of imperforate stamps Scott Nos.274 and 275 that were reported in <SCM2702> to have
gotten into the hands of speculators and which prompted the postal authorities to release additional imperforate
stocks of those stamps to thwart speculation with the error; thus creating Scott Nos.280 and 281. Initially

News of a cover addressed to a collector in Havana which is supposed to have been carried by a U.S. Navy plane
from Hampton Roads, Va., to Cuba, but whose conveyance to Cuba is questioned by the Postmaster at Norfolk
who states that no mail was carried on Navy planes. The cover is postmarked at Norfolk 19 Jan 1928 and has
receipt postmarks from Cienfuegos, Cuba, of 31 Jan 1928, and from Havana, Cuba, of 1 Feb 1928.

"The First Air Mail Ever Carried By Colonel Lindbergh in the ‘Spirit of St. Louis’"
SCM, Vol.4, No.12, WNo.48, Mar 1928, pp.15,19.

Editorial setting forth that the first air mail carried by Lindbergh in the "Spirit of St. Louis" was carried from
Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic to Havana, Cuba, and not from Port Au Prince, Haiti. The editor states that
he has a cover from that flight postmarked 6 Feb 1928 in Santo Domingo and backstamped in Havana 8 Feb 1928.
At the same time he reports of another cover sent to him which was carried by Colonel Lindbergh from Port Au
Prince to Havana and was postmarked 7 Feb 1928 in Port Au Prince and backstamped 8 Feb 1928 in Havana.
Apparently the editor did not realize that the only way Lingbergh could have carried those covers as postmarked
was if they were both on a same flight originating in Santo Domingo on Feb 6, stopping in Port Au Prince on Feb
7, and arriving in Havana on Feb 8, as was the case. See AAMC, Vol.2, 1950 Edition, pp.1026 and 1064. The
article also reports that 2000 covers were carried from Santo Domingo to Cuba and another 2000 from Haiti to
Cuba; these quantities are unconfirmed. On p.19 there is a note of the arrival in New York for sale of the Cuba
Lindbergh stamps, Scott C2.

Scott's Standard Postage Stamp Catalogues are the standard catalogs used by the stamp trade in the U.S. to
identify and price the postage, airmail, air post semi-postal, special delivery, postage due, newspaper, and postal
tax stamps used in Cuba from 1855 during the Spanish Administration to date. Until the 1990 edition of the
catalog, no listings were provided for stamps issued during the Castro administration after July 1961 because of
the trade embargo on Cuban stamps imposed by the U.S. government. Starting with the 1990 edition, all Castro
administration issues are listed, but no prices are provided for stamps issued after July 1961.

cover carried on the Reina Mercedes from Havana to Barcelona. (Need a better photocopy of the article)

The article starts with a listing of the ships used by the “Compañía Transatlántica Española” (Spanish
Transatlantic Company) extracted from a plaque at the Naval Museum in Barcelona. The listing includes the
period of operation of each ship starting from the founding of the company in 1838 to the date of the plaque
which the author did not know at the time of writing the article. This company won a contract in 1861 to carry
the mail between Spain and the Caribbean islands of Cuba, Puerto Rico, and Santo Domingo. The main portion
of the article is a listing of 70 types of handstruck stamps found on the upper left corner of folded letters sent from
Havana to Barcelona, Spain, that were applied usually in violet to indicate the ship of the Spanish Transatlantic
Company on which it was to be conveyed. The article illustrates each of the 70 handstamps listed and provides
the dates of the known letters that bear each handstamp. This article is the basis for much of the information in

Included in the auction were major rarities from the Samuel Israel Collection of Cuba and Puerto Rico which Mr.
Israel donated to the Philatelic Foundation of New York (probably in the mid 1930's). The material in this sale
was withheld because of its rarity and value as reference material for expertization purposes when the bulk of the
Israel Collection was sold at auction by the Foundation through Harmers of New York in January of 1980. See
<HARM8001> for details of that sale and <ISRA????> for further details of the contents of the Israel Collection.
The Siegel sale included 48 lots of Spanish Administration issues, 36 lots of U.S. Administration issues, and 22
lots of Republic issues, plus 3 lots of stamp and cover accumulations. Among the Spanish Administration rarities
in the sale were Scott Nos. 5, 7 (3), 8 (one of 3 known), and 15 on cover, and a combination cover with 15 and
15a sent to Puerto Príncipe; a vertical pair of Nos. 6 and 8 (unique and one of the greatest rarities of Cuban
philately); and 2 sheets of the 5c. and one of the 10c. 1883 surcharged stamps. Among the U.S. Administration
rarities were Puerto Príncipe surcharged stamps Scott Nos. 179G, 197 Pos. 3 tied on cover, 214 Pos. 4 tied on

United States Letter Rates to Foreign Destinations 1847 to GPU-UPU
Louisville, Kentucky: Leonard Hartmann, 1989, 83 pp. Cuba on pp.48,57,61.
Revised 2nd edition of <STAR8200>.

Quoting <WINT9205>: “This book compiled the U.S. rates to all foreign destinations for which information could
be obtained. ... A quick, easy-to-use reference, such as the Starnes book, is the best way to obtain these rates when
evaluating covers. This book is the best reference for rates from the U.S. to foreign countries before the UPU
period.” According to <WINT9205>, the book “addresses the deficiencies in Hargest’s rate tables” (see
<HARG7100>). The information in this book is vital to the Cuban postal historian for the understanding of rate
markings on covers from and to Cuba to Europe via the United States.

"The Mysterious 'D26' Cover"
P/PJGB, Vol.7, No.2, combined WNos.955-956, Mar-Apr 1987, pp.62-63, ill.

Discussion of the postal markings on a single outer letter sheet bearing a vertical pair of the 10c Cuban stamp of
1868 (Scott 32) cancelled by a clear clean strike of the British type of killer consisting of a vertical oval of bars
inscribed "D26" in the center. The article traces the recorded history of the cover's ownership and sale from its
earliest mention as part of the British used abroad collection of Dr. A. Leo of Munich to its recent sale as lot
11630 in the the David Feldman sale of March 29-30, 1984, in which it brought over $20,000. The remainder of
the
article then focuses on a discussion of the postal markings on the cover, presenting hypothetical explanations for
the use of the "D26" killer given the other markings on the cover and its routing. The conclusion is that the use
may be explained by an unawareness of the procedure for the use of the killer and of the circumstances warranting
its use by the clerk that applied it, thus giving good reason to believe that the cover is genuine.

APJ, Vol.58, No.9, WNo.685, Jun 1987; pp.286-289,294 (5); ill.

The article analyzes a cover showing a Havana-Miami-Pánama routing for the inaugural FAM 5 Express flight
piloted by Col. Charles A. Lindbergh on 26 April 1930. This routing is contrary to the previously believed direct
Havana-Pánama routing for the inaugural FAM 5 Express flight, but seems plausible due to the lack of an airmail
contract between the Cuban post office department and Pan Am to transport FAM 5 airmail southbound out of
Havana. Only 2 ounces of mail (approximately 10-12 covers) was dispatched from Cuba on the inaugural FAM 5
Express flight making these AAMC Cuba No.8 FFCs very rare. Corroboration of the routing of this first flight is
pending the reporting of another one of the covers carried on the flight.

While squadrons of U.S. Pacific and Atlantic fleets participated in combined fleet exercises in the Caribbean with
Guantánamo Naval Base as home port, a temporary Cuban airmail branch named "Hicacal" was authorized to
expedite fleet mail to Guantánamo city where mail was subsequently loaded on a Pan Am mail plane bound for
Havana. The article shows an illustration of a first flight cover (AAMC Cuba No.25) originating at "Hicacal" and
flown from Guantánamo to Havana by the Pan Am mail plane on Sept. 22, 1934.

Historic-geographic discussion of the particular view of the mountains known as "Silla de Gibara", that was chosen
to be depicted in Scott C36 as the first Cuban land sighted by Columbus in his first voyage to America. The view
depicted in the stamp was chosen after consultation with historians on the line of approach of the Columbus
expedition in a southsouth west direction into the port of Bariay, and does not correspond to the more familiar view
of those mountains from the port of Gibara.

Good study of the surcharged Giro revenues of 1883. The article notes the existence of only four types of
surcharges applied to the regular 1882 bistre Giro stamps, similar to the surcharges applied to the regular postage

V-1 8/22/2008
stamps but with the value in the center replaced by a core of facing semicircles. One interesting item in the article
is the mention of the existence of a pane of the stamps in the possession of the author from which he deduces that
the setting for the surcharges was done in groups of 50 consisting of 5 rows of ten stamps. The author illustrates
the setting of the 50 surcharges in the article. It is not clear, however, whether the pane in his possession is a pane
of 50 or 100 stamps--if it is a pane of 100 it would have been key to state that the setting repeated in the bottom
half of the pane. The article mentions that the surcharges are apparently symmetrical in the four cardinal
directions but with minor variations which can be identified upon careful examination. This assertion is incorrect
because the symmetry only exists in two directions, the surcharges being rectangular, not square. The article goes
on to note varieties in the printing of the four denominations of the surcharges consisting of missing or broken
letters or numerals. Another interesting observation is that it appears that the surcharges were printed separately
from the word GIRO above them and the values of the surcharges below them. The article ends by mentioning
the existence of forgeries of these surcharges and classifies them into two types, providing identifying
characteristics for each, and commenting that they are quite rare.

"CUBA: Tres 'Primeros Días' poco conocidos" ("CUBA: Three Little Known First Day Covers")
BNJ, No.12, Oct 1984, pp.3-5 (3), ill., Span. with English summary in p.20 (paraphrased below).

Report of three little known first day ceremonies held during the early 40's. The first was the inauguration of the
"Postal Trolley Cars" in the city of Havana on 25 January 1942 providing mail boxes located in trolley cars along
routes that passed through the main post office in Old Havana where the mail was retrieved and posted. Covers
placed in the mail boxes the first day of the service received a special cancellation. The second event was
organized by the Cuban Society of Pigeon Lovers and was a onetime race of pigeons carrying messages attached to
their legs from the town of Colón to Havana. The event took place on 21 December 1941 and those messages that
arrived safely at Havana were placed into specially prepared envelopes commemorating the occasion. It is
interesting to note that the FDC shown has a cachet that reads "Pigeongrama--Ayude a las Democracias"
("Pigeongram--Help the Democracies") and a large bold "V" (for Victory) in the center of the cover, both
promoting support for the allied war effort in Europe. The word "pigeongrama" is a blatant "anglicism" and of no
relation to the war effort--a case of poor judgement by the designer of the FDC. The third event commemorated
was the first use of radiosonde balloons to make meteorological observations. This system was inaugurated by the
Cuban National Observatory on 8 September 1944 and commemorative covers were prepared for the occasion
(none were carried on the balloon since it was not meant to be retrieved).

“Taking Up Space”
AP, Vol.107, No.9, WNo.1112, Sep 1993, pp.846-849, ill.; Cuba on p.847 with picture of a trial flight cover of
Oct. 8, 1939.

Brief mention of the first official postal recognition of rocket mail on October 15, 1939, when the Cuban postal
administration issued the world's first rocket mail stamp. Reference is made to three trial flights that took place
on October 1, 3, and 8, and a picture of an Oct. 8 cover is shown. The article states that some covers were flown
and others are simply commemorative covers, but provides no clues on how to differentiate them, and does not
indicate whether the cover shown was flown. Additionally, the caption on the picture of the cover shown reads
"Cuba was the first nation to issue a postage stamp for rocket mail"; however, the stamp on the illustrated cover is
not the officially issued stamp but a privately printed label used on the trial flight covers--the official stamp was
not issued until October 15. See <KRON5510> and <KRON5803> for more details on the illustrated cover.

"British Closed Mails Through the United States to Cuba"
CUSC, Vol.37, No.125, Feb 1985, pp.62-65 (4), ill.

This article discusses the rating of letters in closed mails to and from Havana, Cuba, following the Postal
Convention between the United States and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland which provided for
closed mails through the U.S. This treaty was concluded in London on December 15, 1848, proclaimed effective
in the U.S. on February 15, 1849, and later supplemented by twenty four articles agreed to in May 1849 that
became effective on July 1, 1849. The article discusses the provisions of the treaty as they applied to Cuba. The
author uses two examples to show the rating of letters handled under the closed mail arrangements through the
U.S.

North Atlantic Mail Sailings 1840-75
Co-author: Walter Hubbard (see <HUBB8800>)
Canton, Ohio: U.S. Philatelic Classics Society, 1988, 419 pp., ill.

Quoting Mr. Winter: The book “provides a comprehensive listing of the sailings of all the mail steamers that
carried letters across the Atlantic under the treaties described by Hargest [see <HARG7100>] and with the rates
listed by Starnes [see <STAR8200>]. From these sailing tables, collectors can find the departure and arrival dates
of the steamships that conveyed the mails across the Atlantic.” As such this book is an invaluable tool for the
Cuban philatelist in analyzing the routing and markings of mail from and to Cuba that traversed the Atlantic.

W-5 8/22/2008
This is a brief tutorial on how to do postal history research using as examples two covers, one of which originated
in Havana, Cuba. The postal markings on the cover are identified and analyzed and conclusions about the cover’s
place of origin and routing are presented. In presenting the conclusions, the author discusses the train of
reasoning that led to them along with some of the resources that the researcher may use to help in the endeavor.
