A series of six stamps celebrating the assumption of power by the Fascists.
The fascist emblem, the ancient Roman fasces or axe and rods, depicted on the highest denomination stamp (5 lire), was featured on many Italian stamps from 1923-1944.
The modernistic design, by G. Balla, shows aircraft over the smog-ridden skyline of Rome, a somewhat curious interpretation of the March on Rome.
