THE ITALIAN STATE POSTAGE STAMPS
Volume VII - Sixth Update 1994-1998

With the introduction by Massimo Sarmi (Chief Executive Officer of Poste Italiane) and by Marisa Giannini (Director of the Philately Division of Poste Italiane).

The present volume, with its impressive historical research and its elegant graphics, is the sixth update of the volume by Luigi Piloni, of the series about the Italian state postage stamps which covers the period 1862-2006.
This one includes a cataloguing of stamped postal papers issued from 1994 to 1998; therefore, also of last issues to indicate their face value only in the Italian national currency.

The period documented represents a particularly important new stage in the history of Poste Italiane: in 1998, the company became a public limited company; in the same year, the Philately Division was set up and given responsibility for stamp collection, with the aim of optimising and developing the reputation of Italian philately, particularly in Europe.

The historical, artistic and bibliographical profiles for each issue, the subject indexes and the collection of legislative measures form an added value for this work.
