1920's-1930's Passport Stamps and Visas!

[Mike J.]

Here's an entry / exit stamp from Syria, from the late 1940's.

I think you can get away with back-dating this one, however. Syria declared itself a republic in 1930.

Just circle and initial "Entree" or "Sortie" and enter the date.

Circa 1927 Turkish passport revenue stamps. Actually the same stamp, but in two colors.

Thank you, gentlemen.

Attached are two Turkish stamps, circa 1932.

These are based on real stamps, but I have changed the text to make them Istanbul-specific. The Turkish should be correct, but I make no promises.

Here's a 'roughened' version of my Egyptian entry visa; if you want that 'hand-stamped' look.

EDIT: See Post #4 Above.

Tabiyeti : Nationality
Mesleği : Occupation
Gidecegi*yer : Destination
Isbu*vizenin*tarihinden itibaren Türkiye hududuna girmek için __________ gün muteberdır. (Duration of validity, I think. Write the number of days in the blank).

[DBCooper]

Thank you for these. Very useful.

 

[Mike J.]

You're welcome, DB.

 

[rcskin]

Very Cool.

Here are some British "Consular Service" stamps.

Cut them out with your faux-stamp scissors.

Stamps like these would be pasted inside a passport, next to the visa, and then cancelled to show a visa fee was paid.

Necessary for all your United Kingdom and Empire visas: Hong Kong, Egypt, Palestine, Australia, etc.

Sorry I don't have any other denominations.

Here's a period Chinese (I think) stamp.

Perfect for all your trips to China and Manchukuo.

1931 Brazilian stamp.

You need to sign and date it.
