Illustrated here are 38 reprints made Zalau/ Zilah  in 1946 with original plates, 
either with shiny black  ink or with gray pale ink.
It is possible to find 66 varieties of overprint/stamp  - some of them plain bogus. All we´ve been told is that less than 45 combinations overprint/stamp was made originally. Below is the CMR listing of the 66 varieties - we would very much appreciate if some knowledgeable philatelist out there could indicate:
a/ which overprints/stamps were issued originally?
b/ which are plain bogus?
c/ how do you tell the difference?
