1945 SPLIT, Missing Fourth Line Variety

One of the 1945 Split provisional issue postal card type 1 varieties is the "Missing Fourth Line" variety. This is most likely a trial printing or an overprint from an early cliché, which was subsequently modified by adding a fourth bar after it was realised that three bars did not completely cover the previous country's name.

1945 Split Provisional Issue, Type 1 postal card. Overprint variety "Missing Fourth Line". Only this single item is recorded. Certificate Vilfan.
