Geographic: Exact. The illustrated monument (postcard and stamp) is located in Rio de Janeiro, the same location where the postmark was applied, fulfilling the locality requirement.

Temporal: Coherent. The postmark was applied in March 1960, a period when the 1959 stamp was still in full postal validity, although it does not constitute a first-day cancellation or a commemorative date linked to the monument.

Yt:ES 965

Stamp: Spain – Correios – Commemorative stamp for the "1st International Philately Congress (CIF-60)" in Barcelona, depicting the "Santo Cristo de Lepanto." The design features the image of the crucified Christ in red/pink tones against a greenish background.

The central composition focuses on the Gothic sculpture of the crucified Christ, accompanied on the side by an illustration of the galley "La Real" of John of Austria, linking the image to the historic Battle of Lepanto. 

Concordance

Thematic: There is perfect thematic harmony between the stamp and the postcard, as both depict the same iconic figure: the Santo Cristo de Lepanto venerated in Barcelona. The inclusion of the galley on the postcard reinforces the historical context that gives the image its name, while the stamp uses it as a symbol for the local philatelic congress.

Geographic: The spatial coherence is absolute, uniting the origin of the image (Barcelona Cathedral), the location of the congress (Barcelona), and the origin of the cancellation postmark, all situated within the same Spanish city.

Temporal: The cancellation dated March 3, 1960, is fully compatible with the stamp's issue date (March 1960) and the period of postal validity for this specific event, establishing an exact chronological relationship between all elements.

Concordance

Geographic: Geographic concordance is established by the postmark from Segovia, a city linked to Claret's missionary trajectory in Spain.

Temporal: Temporal concordance is verified, as the postmark date (November 2, 1951) falls within the stamp's period of validity, following its original issue in September 1951.

Postmark: Bogotá – circular postmark “ADMÓN PPAL. CORREOS / BOGOTÁ – DESPACHO EXTERIOR”, dated 15.7.59, corresponding to the Colombian airmail service of the period and fully consistent with the year of issue of the commemorative stamp.

Postcard: Monochrome printed postcard showing a full‑length depiction Rafael Almanza Riaño in clerical attire with the church of Pineda in the background. Edition unknown.

Concordance:

Thematic: The stamp depicts Rafael Almanza Riaño alongside the church of Pineda, and the postcard likewise presents the same religious figure with the same ecclesiastical setting. This produces perfect thematic alignment, with a complete correspondence of subject, identity, and visual context.

Geographic: The cancellation originates from Bogotá, the city where Rafael Almanza Riaño lived, exercised his ministry, and became widely venerated. Although the church of Pineda shown on both stamp and postcard is not located in Bogotá, all three components - stamp, postmark, and illustration—are tied to the Colombian national religious landscape and to Almanza’s cultural sphere. Geographic concordance is therefore strong, though not site‑specific.

Temporal: The postmark date 15 July 1959 is fully consistent with the postal validity of the commemorative airmail stamp issued on 23 October 1958. While not a first‑day cancellation, it represents correct contemporary usage, fulfilling maximaphilic temporal requirements.

Carte Postal Maximum Lourdes

 

Yt:FR 976

Stamp: France – Commemorative stamp depicting Lourdes – blue‑green design featuring the Sanctuary of Lourdes, the Basilica, and the surrounding Pyrenean landscape, issued by the French postal administration as part of its mid‑20th‑century regional/religious thematic series. (Issue: 12/06/1954)

Postmark: Lourdes (Hautes‑Pyrénées) – circular cancellation dated 4‑10‑1954, consistent with French cancellation formats of the period.

Postcard: Sepia‑toned postcard depicting a pastoral view of Lourdes, showing a shepherd with a flock of sheep in the foreground and the Lourdes Sanctuary, the river and surrounding Pyrenean scenery.

Concordance

– Thematic: The commemorative stamp directly represents Lourdes, depicting the Sanctuary, Basilica and surrounding Pyrenean landscape, while the postcard presents a pastoral photographic view of Lourdes, including the Sanctuary complex, the river and local rural scenery.

This creates perfect thematic alignment, as both stamp and postcard explicitly reference the same locality and visual environment associated with Lourdes.

– Geographic: The Lourdes (Hautes‑Pyrénées) cancellation corresponds precisely to the geographical origin and subject of both the stamp and the postcard. All elements—stamp, postmark and postcard—are fully coherent within the same French location, ensuring complete geographic consistency.

– Temporal: The cancellation dated 4 October 1954 is entirely compatible with the official issue date of the commemorative Lourdes stamp (12 June 1954). Thus, the temporal relation is coherent: a mid‑1954 postcard of Lourdes combined with a contemporary Lourdes‑themed French stamp used within the same year of issue and in its place of origin.

Carte Postal Maximum Centenaire des Apparitions de Lourdes

 

Yt:MC 492

Stamp: Monaco – commemorative stamp issued for the Centenary of the Apparitions of Lourdes – multicolour design featuring the statue of Our Lady of Lourdes and inscriptions related to the centenary celebration, created as an official issue by the postal administration of Monaco. (Issue: 15.05.1958, official commemorative issue.)

The design reproduces the statue of Our Lady of the Grotto, accompanied by surrounding inscriptions in French and textual references to Pius IX, Pope during the time of the Apparitions, and Pius XII, Pope at the time of the centenary celebration. The composition presents a devotional photographic scene with figures positioned around the statue, along with the printed caption “CENTENAIRE DES APPARITIONS DE LOURDES”.

Concordance

– Thematic: The commemorative stamp directly represents the Apparitions of Lourdes, featuring the statue of Our Lady of Lourdes, while the postcard is entirely dedicated to the same event through its photographic depiction of the Lourdes Grotto and centenary inscriptions. This creates perfect thematic alignment, as both stamp and postcard explicitly reference the same religious event and iconography.

– Geographic: The Monaco First Day cancellation corresponds appropriately to the country that issued the commemorative stamp, ensuring full geographic coherence. Although the subject matter concerns Lourdes (France), the postal elements—the stamp and FDC cancellation—are entirely consistent within the framework of the Monaco postal administration, which issued and validated the centenary stamp.

– Temporal: The First Day cancellation dated 15 May 1958 matches exactly the official issue date of the Centenary of Lourdes commemorative stamp. Thus, the temporal relation is perfectly coherent: a centenary‑themed postcard combined with the officially issued Monaco stamp, cancelled on its first day of issue.

Country: Italy

Issue: Monuments destroyed – Church of Santa Maria delle Grazie, Milan

Postmark: Circular Date Stamp (CDS) 3 – Milano – 20.3.45

Postcard: Monochrome photographic illustration of the apse of the Church of Santa Maria delle Grazie in Milan, captioned “Milano – Chiesa delle Grazie – L’abside”.

Justification of Maximum Concordance:

This maximum card originates from Italy and features the Church of Santa Maria delle Grazie in Milan, an iconic Renaissance landmark. The stamp, issued during the period of the Italian Social Republic, depicts the same architectural monument, reinforcing the thematic unity between the philatelic and pictorial elements. The postmark is a CDS from Milan, applied on 20 March 1945, which corresponds to the location of the depicted building and the subject of the stamp. Together, the stamp, the postcard image, and the cancellation achieve maximum concordance by uniting subject, location, and historical context in a single philatelic piece.

Porto - FDC Cinquentenário das Aparições de Fátima (13/05/1967)

 

A Peregrinação de Sua Santidade Paulo VI a Fátima em 1967 foi um evento significativo na história da Igreja Católica. O Papa Paulo VI visitou o Santuário de Fátima em 13 de maio de 1967, no 50.º aniversário das aparições de Nossa Senhora de Fátima. Durante sua visita, o Papa celebrou uma missa diante de uma multidão de fiéis e renovou a consagração do mundo ao Imaculado Coração de Maria, um ato que havia sido solicitado por Nossa Senhora durante as aparições em 1917. A peregrinação de Paulo VI a Fátima foi um momento de grande significado espiritual e reforçou a importância das mensagens de Fátima para a Igreja Católica.
