These stamps consist of two parts, one with inscription 'Sul Bollettino' (for the parcel) and the other 'Sulla Ricevuta' (for the receipt). In cancelled condition these two parts are always separated. Initially 13 values were issued from 5 c to 20 L. Due to the appearance of postal forgeries of the values 3 L and 4 L, these two values were withdrawn and the remainders destroyed.

Later more stamps were issued, also in similar designs, but with axes between the stamps instead of the cords.
