Your answer was: 1936. |
Answer: The first special postmark used by the Vatican Post Office was in 1936. It read "Esposizione Vaticana Della Stampe Aprile - Octobre 1936" ("Vatican Exhibition of Prints April - October 1936".) The Bolaffi Roman States Catalog mentions that this postmark was used from April 6, 1936 until October 1936. Covers outside of this date range have been reported to exist.
