This is a complete set of ten provisional stamps created by overprinting existing definitive issues from 1920. The overprint, reading 'SANABRIA / 1923-1924', was applied to address a temporary stamp shortage. The set includes various denominations from 1 centavo to 10 sucres.

These provisional stamps were issued in the province of El Oro under the authority of Governor Modesto A. Sanabria to alleviate a local shortage of postage stamps in 1923.
