CAPITAL — Tirana
After the outbreak of World War I, the
country fell into a state of anarchy when
the Prince and all members of the Inter-
national Commission left Albania. Sub-
sequently General Ferrero in command
of Italian troops declared Albania an
independent country. A constitution was
adopted and a republican form of gov-
ernment was instituted which continued
until 1928 when, by constitutional
amendment, Albania was declared to
be a monarchy. The President of the
republic, Ahmed Zogu, became king of
the new state. Many unlisted varieties
or surcharges and lithographed labels
are said to have done postal duty in
Albania and Epirus during this unsettled
period.
On April 7, 1939, Italy invaded Alba-
nia. King Zog fled but did not abdicate.
The King of Italy acquired the crown.
Germany occupied Albania from Sep-
tember, 1943, until late 1944 when it
became an independent state. The
People’s Republic began in January,
1946.
40 Paras = 1 Piaster = 1 Grossion
100 Centimes = 1 Franc (1917)
100 Qintar = 1 Franc
100 Qintar (Qindarka) = 1 Lek (1947)
Catalogue values for unused
stamps in this country are for
Never Hinged items, beginning
with Scott 458 in the regular post-
age section, Scott B34 in the semi-

the airpost section.

Nos. 52A-53a originally were handstamped
directly on the cover, so the paper varies.
Later they were also produced in sheets;
these are rarely found. Nos. 52A-53a were
issued by Albanian military authorities.
Counterfeits exist of Nos. 52A and 53.
See Nos. J10-J13. Compare with types
A10-A14. For overprints see Nos 91-104.
