One more ...

Here is an Italian postcard from a stamp show (1988) in Riccione, Italy. The image below depicts a first-day usage, so it appears to be a legitimate issue. My 2015 Scott worldwide catalogues don't include postcards. Does anyone have a specialized of Italy that can provide a catalog number? It doesn't have to be Scott. SG, Y&T, Michel are fine. I just want to publish the page with a catalog number to show it's a legitimate issue.

This appears to be a generic mermaid, and I couldn't find any hits for "Riccione mermaid", but if you are aware of any further connection, I'm all ears!

re: Italian post card

Riccione is a turístic ressort on the Adriatic riviera. So a ball-playing mermaid seems a fit subject. There used to be an Italian catalog, Sassone, that most likely would cover postcards. I don't think that you can find it on Yvert or Michel.

Sassone would be fine.
Bueller? Anyone? Laughing
