Carpatho-Ukraine 1944-1945: An 'Editor's Choice' Stamp Exhibit (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781978418226)

This exhibit shows the many provisional issues of Carpatho-Ukraine from late 1944 to the end of 1945. The exhibit attempts to show all stamp issues as well as most major varieties. Since this is not a popular collecting area, a stamp with an issue of 500 copies is considered common. The rarities in this area are the stamps of which 20 or fewer copies exist. This exhibit contains over 70 examples of these, including two stamps where only 2 copies are known, and five others with only 3 copies known.Carpatho-Ukraine had a complicated history under Czechoslovakia, under Hungary, the Red Army, Czechoslovakia again, the National Council of Carpathia and the Soviet Union. This exhibit depicts the turbulent times.
