cover from Italy and SMOM Card

Last Saturday I got three covers including one from Italy.

Stamp:
75 years Battle of Anzio (issued 22-06-2019)
with First Day Special Postmark


Inside was a participation card of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta from the Veronafil. The Sovereign Military Order of Malta or SMOM is a Roman Catholic order based in Rome. The first stamps of the SMOM were issued back in 1966. Today the stamps are issued for both postal and charitable reasons. The order has over 50 bi-lateral postal agreements and mail with SMOM stamps can only be sent to these countries.
The stamp on the card was issued on 5th December 2018 to commemorate the 150th death anniversary of Gioacchino Rossini.


Thank You very much Davide!
