Cambodia 1990 FIFA World Cup Italy Overprint
Cambodia · 1990 ·
This stamp features a locally applied overprint on a stamp originally issued for the 1990 FIFA World Cup held in Italy. The overprint, typically reading 'ETAT DU CAMBODGE' and a new value, repurposed the foreign-printed stamp for postal use within Cambodia during a period of political transition.
Issued during the State of Cambodia period, these overprints were a practical measure to create valid postage from existing stock of thematic stamps printed abroad, reflecting the country's limited resources after years of conflict.
