Historical and Philatelic Context: In the early phases of the Spanish Civil War, particularly between late 1936 and 1937, numerous towns and cities in the Nationalist zone suffered from a severe shortage of official low-value definitive stamps. To overcome this shortage and ensure the continuation of local postal services and municipal fundraising, local authorities and military commanders authorized the overprinting of existing stocks or the creation of independent local issues. The town of Lanjarón, famous for its thermal springs and strategic location in the Alpujarra region, released this specific series. These local emergency issues are highly prized by specialized collectors of Spanish Civil War philately due to their historical context and limited print runs.
