The only catalogue with all the cancellations used in Italy up to 1865 has been greatly revised, with updates indicated by the best experts in the subject.

This edition presents point valuations (converted into quotations at the beginning of each chapter) for every cancellation used in the different pre-unity states starting from the pre-adhesive period just before the introduction of postage stamps to the use of "numeral" cancellations.

Moreover, all cancellations used in the Italian Territories of the Austrian Empire, in the Austrian Levant, in the offices abroad, and all French marks used to cancel postage stamps of the Italian area on mail travelled "Via Sea", the cancellations of Navigation on the great Italian Lakes, the use of French postage stamps in the offices of Civil Post in 1859 and 1860, maritime mail, the great Italian harbours.

Compared to the previous edition of 2015, the valuations of the prefilatelic cancellations have been gathered in a single chapter and two new ones have been added: one dedicated to the accessory cancellations; the other to the Third War of Independence (1866), with the listing and valuation of "Austrian" and "Italian" franking and their use in the post offices in Veneto and Friuli.
