@Philafrenzy: Thank you for suggesting something "better than this modern reprint". Do you have access to any illustrating material relevant to Micheloni? Also, is it feasible to find his death date? As far as I understand, he settled down in New York as a physician, at least judging from his numerous ads and notes in Mekeel's Weekly Stamp News.

I am not getting much outside philately. I will check some of my books and see if they mention him. He certainly appears notable on philately alone, but the better sources may be in Spanish or in fencing journals. Philafrenzy (talk) 13:01, 24 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
I found a grave in Corsica. One of the names of the died in Indochina is "Micheloni Louis.......caporal", but I doubt that this was the right Micheloni. By the way, he was Champion Fencer of North and South America. --Michael Romanov (talk) 14:07, 24 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
I found nothing in my books or databases. I think it will just have to wait for someone from South America to come along and use one of their offline sources. The fencing is a lead but beware such championship claims - for what class/tournament? Some sports have an awful lot of champions. Was he an Olympian? Have you tried name variations, particularly of Antony? Philafrenzy (talk) 14:21, 24 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
