Bolivian Llama Stamp, 2 Cts

This is a Bolivian postage stamp, denominated at '2 Cts' (Centavos). The stamp features a central vignette depicting two llamas in a mountainous or hilly landscape, indicative of the Andean region where llamas are native. The dominant coloration of the stamp appears to be shades of green and grey, suggesting a monochromatic or duochromatic printing process. The top border of the stamp clearly displays the text "CORREOS DE BOLIVIA", which translates to "POSTAGE OF BOLIVIA", confirming its origin. To the left of this text, the numeral '2' is prominent, indicating the value, and to the right, 'Cts' for Centavos. The stamp is rectangular with perforated edges, typical of postage stamps, indicating it was intended to be torn from a sheet. The overall condition appears to be good with minimal visible wear, although the image quality makes it difficult to assess fine details such as gum condition or minute imperfections. The exact age is not definitively marked, but based on the design style and denomination, it likely dates from the early to mid-20th century. The printing quality seems consistent with standard postal stamp production of that era. There are no obvious signs of significant damage, repairs, or heavy foxing. The paper itself appears to be of standard weight and texture for a philatelic item. The image's slight blurriness makes it hard to discern any specific manufacturer's marks or minute design details beyond the main features.
