The listing, 12x used Spanish ATM Postage Stamps has ended.
12 different used Spanish ATM postage stamps ("ATM" means "vending machine" in German and is short for Automatenmarken).
These were used in Spain approx. mid-1990's to 2007.
There are a variety of subjects on the stamps, including ships, trains, cars, motorcycles, buildings and others.
Condition: used (meaning that they are on paper will have some postal markings present).
You will receive 12 different stamps, counted out of the large lot shown in the photo (so no, you won't receive the entire box obviously; that box has close to 10,000 stamps in it and cost me quite a bit of money... since this box contains a lot of duplicates, I am passing these on via Listia). There are approx. 120+ different designs available in this series of stamps, in up to 6 different font variations, so the possibility of a complete collection is close to 1,000 different items). The German Michel ATM stamp catalog (which costs close to US $85.00) lists and values these stamps (and generally have a catalog value of about $1.95 to $2.60 each.
IMPORTANT NOTE: these particular type of stamps are all on clippings from envelopes or other mail pieces. It is strongly advised that you do NOT attempt to soak these off the paper. The inks on the stamps are fugitive (meaning they will dissolve in water, thus ruining the stamp if you soak them). It is recommend to collect them as is, perhaps carefully trimming the paper closer to the stamp.
I can't promise any particular design, I'll just pick the first 12 stamps out of the box.
I have created 111 album pages for these stamps (since there are no commercially available pages). I do have these pages for sale separately either as a PDF file (you print it) or via pre-printed pages, if interested, please go to the bottom of my website at:
