Tirol Parcel Control stamps issued between 1919-1921, as a method to control the export of parcels with goods, which was temporarily forbidden after the Great War. The Tyrolean government ordered these labels to use the small labels for postal parcels and the larger ones for railway parcels. These are not listed in Scott and are considered locals. This wholesale lot of about 30 panes/large blocks/multiples (with 25 - 50 stamps in a complete pane - probably 1000 stamps in total). Includes both designs, in mint, cancelled to order and with revaluations. The mint sheet file that houses them is done, and some of the panes are adhered to each other, others to the file. Some appear that they will come clean fairly easily, others will require soaking. A terrific study opportunity. Estimate =
