I don't trust the next "GUAM" overprint, is it a forgery?


The forger Fournier made forgeries of these overprints. The above images are obtained from 'The Fournier Album of Philatelic Forgeries'

 

 

In 1930 some stamps of the United States were overprinted "GUAM GUARD MAIL", also two stamps were issued with this inscription:


(Guam Guard Mail, palmtree and ship)
