Postal
rates for newspapers.
Udgiverkorsbånd til autoriserede bladforhandlere
Publisher
of newspapers can distribute the publication by mail services like “notify
newspaper” delivered by a list, and distribute like “addressed newspaper”
Saturday and/ or Sunday with wrapper. (Delivered on Monday)
Udgiverkorsbånd til omdeling som er tilmeldt bladbesørgelsen.(Brun adresseseddel) Ankomststemplet i Vágur 01.09.1989.
Publishers
of week or months magazines will normally print the address on the magazine.
There will not occur any wrappers.
Adresseret dagblad ” lørdag og/eller søndag ” med korsbånd. Blå adresseseddel
You
will find wrappers from people and publisher who don’t have any agreement with
the postal authorities to printed matter postal rate, and wrappers from
publishers who have an agreement called “udgiverkorsbånd” for a low postal
rate. You will find different types:
“Udgiverkorsbånd”
to be called for the post office.
“Udgiverkorsbånd”
to be called for the newsstand. (Fig.1)
“Udgiverkorsbånd”
to be delivered (only Faroe Islands) (fig.2)
“Udgiverkorsbånd”
to be delivered (from other
countries) (fig.3)

Normally
you paid by an account every months (PP- wrappers, PP – letters or plastic -
wrappers). They are not interesting for stamp collectors.
Wrappers
with stamps are used by small publishers and are very interesting for stamp
collectors.

The
postal authorities demand the publishers should mark the wrappers with “
imprimés á taxe réduite”. The postal rates were never published. I have
only received the Danish postal rates:

In
1976 Postverk Føroya continue with Danish rates and nobody knows when it ends.
Later Postverk Føroya make an easy rule for the publishers: Half printed matter
postal rate, and if you want mail by air, you must pay full air-charge. First
times you can read about the rule are in July 1987.
Udgiverkorsbånd afstemplet 11.07.97 med bladtakst
fra 01.01.96 600 øre (100-250g ).
Printed
matter and air-charge disappears in the new postal rates, so the postal
authorities are making the first postal rates for publishers in October 1995.
I
have seen a lot of wrappers who have a wrong franking. The Faroe rule and the
Danish postal rates don’t accordance with the franking. Sometimes they
haven’t stamps for the correctly postal rate, and sometimes the publisher
doesn’t care and at last I think the postal employment doesn’t have the
knowledge.
