Item Description

1910 Austria Hungary Revenue 40 Heller Pelure Paper Duty Stamp Used. (Stempelmarke: Revenue stamp to prove that stamp duty has been paid) Thin, often brittle, semi-transparent paper and can be either woven or laid and is rendered semi-transparent by the resins used in the manufacturing of the paper. Stamps printed on pelure paper sometimes do not survive wholly intact because of their brittle nature. Pelure is easily identified because of its transparency. Pelure is a French word meaning skin or peel, like that of a banana, which is why sometimes this paper is compared to onionskin paper.
