Public Auction 58 / Philately / Czechoslovakia 1918-1939 / Chainbreaker Issue 1920 - Information
18.6. 1920 Osvobozená republika
Autorem poštovních známek Osvobozená republika je Vratislav Hugo Brunner. Známky byly vydány v 11 různých hodnotách, od 20 h - do 250 haléřů, hodnota 50 haléřů ve 2 různých barvách (červená a žlutozelená). Všechny poštovní známky této emise vytiskla tiskárna České grafické Unie v Praze knihtiskem (KT). Stejně jako u předchozí emise Holubice byly i tyto známky vydávány postupně, ve 3 obdobích: v červnu 1920 hodnoty 20, 25 a 30 haléřů, v srpnu 1920 hodnoty 40, 50 /červená/, 60, 100, 185 a 250 haléřů, poslední 2 hodnoty 50 h /zelená/ a 150 h vyšly až v dubnu 1922. Pro tisk jednotlivých hodnot byl použit různý počet tiskových desek (TD), od 2 - do 40 kusů, v různých sestavách. Buď dvě a dvě různé hodnoty, nebo dvě desky jedné hodnoty emise Holubice a dvě desky jedné hodnoty emise Osvobozená republika (OR). U některých hodnot emise OR se dosud nepodařilo přesně zjistit kolika TD byly vytištěny, neboť byly vydány v dnes těžko uvěřitelných nákladech. Např. 60 h modrá necelých 269 milionů, 50 h zelená skoro 470 milionů kusů! Platnost poštovních známek Osvobozená republika nebyla ukončena ve stejný den, z oběhu byly jednotlivé hodnoty stahovány postupně. Dnem 30.4.1921 skončila platnost hodnot 20 a 25 haléřů, o 9 měsíců později, dne 31.1.1923 přestaly platit hodnoty 50 /červená/, 100, 150, 185 a 250 haléřů a dne 31.12.1925 byla ukončena platnost hodnot 30, 40, 50 /zelená/ a 60 haléřů. Kromě bílého papíru s hladkým lepem byl pro tisk poštovních známek této emise použit i papír nažloutlý až nahnědlý, též tenký s prosvítajícím tiskem i tlustší. Kromě bílého byl rovněž použit lep nažloutlý pórovitý, někdy i rýhovaný a také žlutohnědý. Všechny známky byly opatřeny hřebenovým zoubkováním HZ 14, u hodnot 40, 50, 60, 100 a 150 haléřů bylo použito i řádkové zoubkování ŘZ 13¾. Se stejným zoubkováním ŘZ 13¾ existují i hodnoty 20, 25, 30, 185 a 250 haléřů, které nebyly úředně vydány. Zajímavou specializací u poštovních známek emise OR jsou desková čísla (DČ) vyskytující se u dolních rohových známek (ZP 91 a ZP 100) na dolních okrajích PA a deskové značky na ochranných rámech na svislých okrajích PA. Sběratelé deskových a výrobních vad si s ohledem na celkový počet TD rozhodně přijdou na své.
