Estonia 1923 Airmail Overprints Set of 2

Estonia · 1923 · 5 Marka

This set features two triangular Estonian airmail stamps, each with an original denomination of 5 Marka and depicting a biplane. Both stamps bear a red overprint '5 Marka 1923', with one also including 'OHU POST' and the other 'EESTI OHU POST'.

Issued shortly after Estonia gained independence, these stamps reflect the early development of airmail services in the newly formed nation. The overprints were applied to existing airmail issues to update their value and signify their continued use in the post-war period.
