Explanations extract from : The Correos Stamps of Venezuela

On January 1, 1866, another set of adhesives was issued, returning to the armorial design. This timethe stamps are perfectly square, and the arms is placed on a solid ground together with a ribboncontaining the motto Dios y federacion (God and Federation) within an octagonal frame, thewhole being set in a square frame. The inscription is a more ambitious one, reading Correo do losE.E. UU. De Veneza. (Post of the United States of Venezuela). The values are: 12 centavo yellow-green, 1 centavo blue green, 12 real rose or brown violet, 1 real vermilion, 2 reales yellow. The 12centavo and 12 real stamps exist tte-bche, the 1 real and 2 reales were cut diagonally and used as12 and 1 real respectively. Although the stamps are issued imperforate some values are met with

perforated privately.

The 12 real is known to have been issued in July 1870, printed on a very much thicker wove paper,and April 1897, the Timbre poste proved with its customary (sometimes wearisome) minutenessthat the lithographer, Felix Rasco of Caracas, had made a second transfer causing a lot of smalldifferences. It is in this second transfer that the tte-bche stamps appear. By the way, the sheetscontain 135 stamps in 15 rows of 9.

January 1, 1874, a new issue was brought out. Same design as 1866 series, but the 12 centavo isomitted and a 2 centavos added, the new set printed in partly different colors. A feature of this seriesis a remarkable overprint used as a safeguard against fraud. It consists of two lines of diamondletters 6 mm. apart, the top line always repeating the word Contrasea, the bottom lineEstampillas de Correo. In 1875 the lettering was made a trifle larger. There are numerous errorsand misprints, for instance Estampilla, Correos, omissions of capitals, reversion of lines(Contrasea as bottom line), placing overprint upside down, etc. The 1 real stamp occurs tte-bchefive times on a sheet of 150.

1882 Pagina 2 - Correos de Venezuela

August 15, 1882, witnessed the issue of an entirely new series. The stamps were finely engraved(very likely in the United States), showing a portrait of Bolivar in oval, set into various artisticframes. With the exception of the 5 centimos label, the numeral of value is repeated in all fourcorners. Wove paper, perf. 12: 5 centimos blue, 10 centimos red-brown, 25 centimos light brown,50 centimos green, 1 bolivar violet. Of this set also the 10 centimos and 50 centimos stamps have

been cut diagonally to procure 5 centimos and 25 centimos stamps. Many adhesives of the 1882issue are found with what looks at first sight like an overprint, FUERA DE HORA. This is merely

a cancellation for letters posted over the counter after closing the boxes, and means After thehour.Explanations extract from : The Correos Stamps of Venezuela
