Title:
Servicio Sanitario - Municipal coat of arms
Description:
With unique control number in black at the bottom
This stamp is easily confused with the 1901 issue, and Forbin does not distinguish between the two. Identifying features of the 1900 issue include:
- the design is usually centered up, resulting in a small top margin and a large bottom margin
- the digits in the control number have distinct fonts, with straight tops to "5” and "7"
The Servicio Sanitario revenue stamps of Rosario were issued to pay fees for mandatory health examinations of registered prostitutes. They were affixed to booklets and were cancelled with markings indicating the results of the health check.
