Italy – Italian Monarchs

Merja sent me this maxicard, that feature Italian monarchs who reigned between 1861 and 1946. The fairly large stamp in deep white has pictures of four stamps issued during the Reigns of Italian monarchs. Three of the four stamps are arranged as per the colors of the Italian flag. The picture of the stamp on the left of green color, value of five cent depicts the reign of Umberto I; In the center of the fifteen value cent of 1863 represents Vittorio Emanuele II; - to right the stamp in red color of the value of 10 cent emitted in 1901 represents Vittorio Emanuele III. Below to the center is the fourth stamp of the value of 20 cent in 1930 on occasion of the wedding of Prince Umberto with Prince Maria Josè of Belgium and, on the left and to right, in stilizzata design are the coat of arms sabaudo. The legend “EXTENSION - the REIGN D' ITALY - MONTECITORIO”, written “ITALY” and value “€ 0,60” complete the stamp.
