Buenos Aires Postmarks Part 1: Early variations and the common numerals
There are early variations of the Buenos Aires numerals. Two examples are shown below. The vertical pair shown below left is a "BUENOS AIRES 2 - INTERIOR" postmark, and the example shown below right is a "BUENOS AIRES 24" with a smaller diameter. |

| I have made some headway in identifying most Buenos Aires numerals, for which I have a dedicated page of links. The Buenos Aires numerals are type I postmarks. Below I show a strip of four of the 5c Moreno with a BUENOS AIRES 1, and below it a splendid cover with a clear impression of a BUENOS AIRES 47. This beautiful air mail cover to Switzerland bears two singles of the 2 pesos, either from the 2P1E or the 2PNGR printings, as well as singles of the 50c, likely a 50c1E, of the 40c, also likely a 40c1E, and a 5c Rivadavia stamp not from this series. | |
