Emission - Cinderella

A “cinderella stamp” is anything that looks like a stamp but is not an actual postage stamp (that is to say they are not stamps that were issued by a governmental authority of a country to be used to pay for postage). Cinderella stamps include:

• Stamps that have been produced under the governmental authority of a country but not for postal usage, such as charity stamps, and various kind's of tax stamps (these tax stamps are known as “Revenues” and listed as a separate emission type on Colnect).
• Stamps that are used to pay for postage (delivery) but have been produced under the governmental authority of a place that is not a “country”, such as stamps by a government in exile, or stamps from a territory or a micronation that was never recognized by the United Nations, the UPU, or its neighbors.
• Legitimate stamps that are used to pay for postage (delivery) but that have not been authorized by the government, such as stamps for use by private courier companies. These private delivery cinderella stamps are listed as stamps with the emission type “Private” on Colnect.
• Stamp shaped seals and labels that are produced in a place that is a country but that have not been authorized by its government and are not used to pay for postage or delivery, such as Christmas seals, propaganda stamps, and various other charity seals and labels.
• Stamps that are fakes or forgeries of genuine postage stamps produced in order to deceive postal administrations and/or collectors.
• Stamp shaped seals that have a fictitious country name or no country name at all that were printed to sell to collectors.
• And anything else that looks like a stamp but is not an actual postage stamp.
