Uruguay 1927 Parcel Post Exterior Set

Uruguay · 1927 · 5c, 10c, 20c

This set of three parcel post stamps was issued by Uruguay in 1927 for the payment of fees on parcels. The 'exterior' designation likely refers to their use for international parcel shipments.

Parcel post stamps were specialized issues used to denote the prepayment of postage for parcels, distinct from regular letter mail. Their introduction streamlined postal services for goods.
