About N. Imperato
Born 1890.
Nino Imperato (born c. 1890s), normally known just as N. Imperato, was a stamp forger based in Genoa, Italy in the early 1920s.
Like Francois Fournier, Imperato promoted his forgeries as facsimiles available to the collector at a fraction of the cost of the real thing. His house journal, Il-Fac-simile, went through at least nineteen editions between 1920 and 1922. Amongst other content the journal included two short articles by fellow forger (or distributor of forgeries) Angelo Panelli.
Work Forgeries were produced of a wide range of stamps, including: and it may be around then that Imperato acquired his stock of Oneglia forgeries.
