1945 LJUBLJANA, Early cheque order

Immediately after the liberation of Ljubljana, a postal traffic for private shipments and cheque orders was suspended. It was reopened on 30.05.45 for cheque orders and on 08.06.45 for the shipments. Because there were no overprinted stamps until the 08.06. cheque orders paid out between 30.05. and 08.06. were franked with the old occupation stamps.

Cheque order cachet, issued 7.5.45.
