Scott #218 [1941 50 øre V Overprint, With Watermark] Used with F-VF+ centering. Superbly centered -- and as complete as possible on this size stamp -- "OSLO / P.N." 30 August 1941 hand cancellation. This stamp was first available on 15 August, just 15 days earlier. The correct type/position of watermark clearly shows in watermark fluid and even faintly shows without fluid at the bottom of the stamp. If you are watermarking this or any photogravure-printed Norwegian stamp, you must use watermark fluid that is labeled as being "safe" for photogravure stamps. Clarity brand fluid is one (of several) such fluids that are "safe". This example, and one other but with a less complete postmark -- both with identical centering, identical watermark positioning, and seemingly the same style of postmark -- were found in the estate of a Norwegian collector who received them on mail (and soaked them many decades ago). I believe that they were from the same sheet of stamps and mailed by the same person to the collector who saved them. In addition to this stamp being one of the "key" Norwegian stamps that are missing from most Norway collections, it is "rare" with such a nice, complete, fully dated postmark. A wonderful example! Accompanied by a 2025 Jay Smith color certificate with "lifetime" guarantee (inquire for guarantee details). (Facit 2024 value SEK 5000 for Used in normal quality with normal cancellation that does not show a date -- this example is much nicer.) ACTUAL item. |

Scott #218 [1941 50 øre V Overprint, With Watermark] Used with F-VF+ centering. Very neat, partial "OSLO" hand cancellation. The correct type/position of watermark clearly shows in watermark fluid and even faintly shows without fluid at the bottom of the stamp. If you are watermarking this or any photogravure-printed Norwegian stamp, you must use watermark fluid that is labeled as being "safe" for photogravure stamps. Clarity brand fluid is one (of several) such fluids that are "safe". This example, and one other which has a complete and fully dated 30 August 1941 postmark -- both with identical centering, identical watermark positioning, and seemingly the same style of postmark -- were found in the estate of a Norwegian collector who received them on mail (and soaked them many decades ago). I believe that they were from the same sheet of stamps and mailed by the same person to the collector who saved them. This stamp is one of the "key" Norwegian stamps that are missing from most Norway collections. An excellent example! Accompanied by a 2025 Jay Smith color certificate with "lifetime" guarantee (inquire for guarantee details). (Facit 2024 value SEK 5000 for Used in normal quality with normal cancellation that does not show a date.) ACTUAL item. |

236 [1941 1-1/2 kr V Overprint, Without Watermark] Used F-VF horizontal pair with neat "...GEN" (Bergen?) ?0 August 1941 (10, or 20 or 30 August) cancellation. This stamp is much scarcer Used than Mint, and Used singles are "scarce"; Used MULTIPLES are very scarce with proper in-period cancellations. Used F-VF singles sell for $15.60 each. ACTUAL item. |

Scott #238 [1941 5 kr V Overprint, Without Watermark] Used with XF centering and SUPERB OSLO 14 8 [August] 41 FIRST DAY CANCELLATION. A wonderful example with great centering, strong color, and excellent appearance. This 5 kr stamp is "very scarce" with cancellations in the proper period of use, and even more so with well-centered cancellations and/or fully dated cancellations. However, a FIRST DAY CANCELED example with such a "perfect" cancellation strike is truly exceptional! Facit 2024 value for a "normal" properly dated cancellation is SEK 1200. However this example is "rare" and outstanding quality! A superlative example! ACTUAL item. |
