I have revised the story of the origin of the Corrientes stamps to follow Louis Stich's telling (1957) which differs in several respects from the unsourced version previously here. Does anyone know what the current scholarship on this is? Ecphora (talk) 14:32, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
The image of the one real (1856, not 1880) posted on the article page has diagonal lines running through the background of Ceres, as well as the frame itself. These lines do not appear in stamps illustrated in Stich's book or in the on line study of these stamps. (The stamp looks like type 5.) I'm not sure what this is -- fake, facsimilie, ?. Until this is resolved, I've moved the image here to the talk page. Ecphora (talk) 11:37, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
I will do this in few days if no one objects. Ok. The whole Argentina stamps article could do with major expansion anyway. Cheers ww2censor (talk) 21:45, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
The image Image:Guillermo brown1.jpg is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check

HI there, I am the great-grand daughter of Paul Emile Coni, He was commissioned by the Corrientes government Juan Gregorio Pujol to print the first Argentinean stamp. He then found Matias Pipet, another follow frenchman working as a bread maker to help. The impressions were made on "silk paper" know as "kite paper". The first were made in black ink over blue paper in pages of 32, arranged in 4 groups of 6 stamps and in pages of 24 that contained 3 groups of 8 stamps.
I have yet more information on how Paul Emile Coni arrived to Argentina, he studied graphics art in Paris. He also run the Argentinean "Imrenta Coni" (I have more info about this too).
Two of his sons appear in Wikipedia already and I am interested in creating a page for Paul Emile Coni. DO you think we can help each other? I am new to wikipedia.
