ISSUES OF THE SOVIET REPUBLIC Nos. 265-305A [In the present Scott Catalogue Nos. 223-305 are unassigned. These issues - 265-305A - (the bánát bácksa issue) are now listed as 'Occupation Issues' in the back of the Hungary listing and are assigned the numbers 10N1-10NP1. Number 305A - the postal savings stamp - has been reassigned to number 103A.] A still further group at Temesvar seized and surcharged types A 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 with the words BANAT BACSKA 1919 for use in this section of Hungary between the evacuation by the Serbs and the Romanian occupation of that section. These surcharges are in three lines oblique, or, two words at the top of a semi circle with the 1919 at the bottom. They were surcharged too, on the formerly surcharged Koztarsasag issues.
