5, comma 2, del regio decreto 31 gennaio 1901).
(3) Luogo per l'apposizione della marca speciale (o per la dichiarazione che
il passaporto viene Rilasciato gratuitamente a norma dell'art. 6, comma 4°,
del regro decreto 31 gennaro 1901), bollo, data e drma dell'autorita che
rilascia il passaporto. Se si tratta di passaporto rilasciato all'estero,
in sostituzione della marca speciale l'uffiziale che lo rilascia annotera,
accanto al bollo, l'ammontare deila tassa percetta.
A handwritten note: Spresa Giorno 20. Luchero 30.
Two questions: the passport has never been stamped, and the port of arrival
is listed. Is this a single use passport? Is the other half in Italy (I've
heard that at one time they were in two parts).
Thank you for any and all help.

"IL SOTTOPREFETTO."
The Under-Prefect, the title of the officer issuing the passport.
The Prefetto is the Police Department for the area. This Office issued the
passports. In English we would probably say The Under-Sheriff.
QUESTURA DI CORLEONe
POLICE DEPARTMENT OF CORLEONE,
The Italian passport was issued to permit the person to *leave* Italy. With
the exception of a brief period during WWI, a passport was not required to
enter the US until the 1940s. Thus, there would be no reason for any US
official
to 'stamp' the passport.
Passports are and were issued by the Provincial questura, the local police.
There may be a copy of the document in Italy, but it will not provide you with
any more information
of genealogical value than what you already have.
