Hmmm... Lessee... My Edifil (Spain) doesn't list them, My Afinsa
(****tugal) doesn't list them - both are too old.
My Michel Austria 2003 does - "Automarken", page 256.
Dallay doesn't show them, but Yvert & Tellier France 2000 does on page
290 - "Timbres de Distributeurs"
My C.O.B. Belgium 2004 shows them on page 374, "Vignettes
d'affranchissement". Thanks for this one because I found out
something on paper types. See - what comes around, goes around!

Probably, but I have seen them on letters as well - as mentioned -
****tugal and dinosaurs.
