¡Viva la República!
At the end of the Spanish monarchy, or perhaps just a long pause? Supporters of the new republic showed their support when they affixed postage to envelopes. One I will look at today and it is one I haven't run across before, the placing of the recently República Española overprinted Alfonso XIII stamp horizontal so that the overprint is read right side up.
The below cover is postmarked December 23, 1931 from Puerto De La Cruz (Las Palmas)
to Arendel, Norway, with back stamp of January 2, 1932 for its arrival in Arendel. Franked with
one 40c. (#600) which paid the Non Postal Union Letter rate .40c. for up to 20gr.
I tried to find any information on the receiver but it no luck.
