1922-1970? Multiple Sun + AЯ watermark

[Rein]

In 1932 Walter Bose published a series of articles on the Ministerials in which he described several versions of the watermarks:

How does this classifcation clash or not with later or earlier ones? With Hicketier? With CEFILOZA?

Why do we not have a contemporary survey of the 1922-1935 period???

I started to re-write the CEFILOZA list and will soon be able to present a new list of the 1922-1935 period!

no reaction from the experts so far!

How come that no-one is describing the letters of AЯ or RA of the early watermark??? In a similar way Dario Bardi did for the PyR I series???

Bardi did pay attention to the fact that in several types of paper the A and the Я were connected at the bottom - "las letras se unen en la base"

At least all types of paper till 1931 were mentioned ....

But I still do not know how to imagine my letras agudas or cuadradas????

The first multiple large Sun + AR watermark was introduced in 1922 for the 1917 José de San Martin definitives and for the 1921-1922 semi-permanente Congreso Postal!

This paper is supposed to have come from the Netherlands! irrespectively whether the letters are sharp [agudas] or square [cuadradas] - what ever that may mean!! - the A and Я are NOT joined at the bottom....

The diameter of the sun is supposed to be 10x9.5mm - hence slightly elliptical - but 9.5mm as a diameter seems just as common!

The A and Я are loose and the horizontal joints between the suns are more or less straight....

The A and Я are loose and the horizontal joints between the suns are more or less straight.... And even seem to be on the same level as the horizontal stroke of the A!





But not in all cases!



The stroke of the A seems a bit lower! Or it that just the heavy cancellation?
