Scarce Overprinted Cuba Stamps
After the Spanish-American War ended with US victory, America took administrative control of Cuba, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines. The United States established a military government to run Cuba from 1898 until 1902, when the nation’s first president was elected.
As an emergency measure in 1899, US stamps were overprinted for use in Cuba. The overprinted stamps included the 1894 Bureau issues and the Series of 1898-99 stamps that were commonly available at that time. These Cuba Overprint stamps were short lived and can be difficult to find today. Get these scarce pieces of US and Cuban history in your collection right away.
