LJP, Čatež / Velika Loka

The Čatež post office was a small subsidiary of the Velika Loka post office. It operated during the Italian occupation of the Ljubljana Province, and it was closed on the 8th of September 1943, after the capitulation of Italy.

The Italian postal ticket of 50 cents, sent from a small subsidiary post office Čatež via Velika Loka (22.VII.41) to Rakek (23.VII.41). Only a few examples of this auxiliary post office have been preserved. This is the only one on a rare, 50 cents postal ticket that I know.

The Čatež post office postmark "ČATEŽ / (VELIKA LOKA)".
