Stamp: Brazil – commemorative stamp in a carmine‑red tone, face value Cr$ 1.20, belonging to a Birth Centenary of Ruy Barbosa issued in 15.12.1949. The design features an ornate frame, the inscription “BRASIL – CORREIO”, the value expressed in cruzeiros, and an engraved portrait executed in fine linear style, typical of Brazilian postal issues of that period.
Postmark: São Paulo – circular cancellation dated 19 JAN 50, bearing the inscription “A.T.C. COLET.” and “S. PAULO – BRASIL". It is an administrative/routine cancellation, characteristic of collection and sorting services used by the postal system at the time.
Postcard: Beige postcard with monochrome brown printing, depicting portrait of Ruy Barbosa. The paper shows the texture and tonality typical of Brazilian printings from the mid‑20th century.
Concordance
– Thematic: The commemorative stamp directly represents Ruy Barbosa through an engraved portrait issued for his birth centenary, while the postcard also depicts a portrait of Ruy Barbosa in matching artistic style. This creates perfect thematic alignment, as both stamp and postcard explicitly reference the same historical figure and subject matter.
– Geographic: The São Paulo cancellation corresponds appropriately to the Brazilian origin of both the Ruy Barbosa centenary stamp and the postcard produced in Brazil, ensuring full geographic coherence within the Brazilian postal system.
– Temporal: The cancellation dated 1950 is fully compatible with the period of postal circulation of the Ruy Barbosa centenary issue (late 1940s–early 1950s).
Thus, the temporal relation is coherent: a contemporaneous postcard bearing a portrait of Ruy Barbosa combined with the commemorative centenary stamp used in regular postal circulation.
