How would you describe the unusual perfs on these cinderellas? http://tinyurl.com/52f9d Blair

When working on an update of my Titian-page I realized that there seems to be some disagreement about his birthyear. This is reflected on three stamps issued by Bulgaria, Italy and Hungary, all showing the portrait "Flora". The Bulgarian stamp (Scott # 3216 - Michel 3531) states 1487, the Italian...

Hallo - I'm thinking of starting to collect stamps of Batum (the old ones, not the new labelly fakes). Don't ask why, because the answer would be that I have literarily no idea! What I'm wondering is - being an overprint issue where the basic sets aren't fabulously expensive, is this an...

I am looking for someone who is a member of the Malaya Study Group. I have some questions about the group. Al

I'm trying to figure out how to categorize this *stamp*? Anyone here ever seen this kind of printing error or outcome of the printing process? The closest stamp that it is to is Scott no. 577 http://tloepp.home.mindspring.com/577.jpg Thanks for any ideas. -- Tom Loepp

I collect the early stamps of the British Empire. I'm particularly keen upon those earlier primitive issues of Mauritius- though I often cannot afford them. So it is that practically every time I go and visit my regular dealer here in London, he recounts the time when, a few years ago now, a man...

Hello to all. I'm collecting stamps worldwide by date of issue. I've found two sets of stamps from Lebanon which might be of interest for my collection, German Michel and Scott do not indicate the exact date of issue. a) 1959 Sept., Conference of Lebanese emigrants, 30 Pia on 50 Pia, 40 Pia on 50...

Subsequent to my very timely post a few weeks ago about is issue, it is about to be printed from the original dies. Also like New Zealand, this will be only for the privileged few only 2,500 will be printed, in a book for only (cough,cough) $165 Only subscribers shall be able to purchase. I may...

The colour of Austria 1971, Scott 894, is listed as "rose lake". On the Internet I have found this sample http://www.werbeka.com/venus/venus2/frim08.htm I have the same stamp myself http://arthistory.heindorffhus.dk/titian-at1971-JacopoStrada.jpg which looks rather grey-blue with a drop of...

In another group that I attend I just heard that Hundertwasser -- whose original family name was Stowasser - constructed his rather weird artistic name directly from the Slavic word "sto", meaning "hundred". Pretty original thinking for making up a name :-) As an aside Ausria will issue a new...

In a shoebox-lot I have found this stamp: http://shoebox.heindorffhus.dk/shoebox-ThraceInteralliee.jpg It is obviously a Bulgarian stamp (Tsarstvo Bulgariya), and shows probably Tsar Boris III. What intrigues me is the overprint "Thrace Interalliee". Apparently issued 1918, it must have...

Gday I have posted a picture from the official Mt St Helens webcam at www.cobbsmill.com/mtsthel.htm It was taken earlier today and I strongly advise that you don't look at it if you are of a nervous disposition. -- Cheers - John Mycroft coryton_at_cobbsmill_dot_com

Dear Friends, Can any of you tell me which US stamps are still valid for franking and where do I find a list / reference? Thanks very much! -- Mvh Toke http://www.norbyhus.dk/

Somebody left a small box on the floor in the hall. How rude, I thought. I picked it up to toss it down the garbage chute. The box had been used to mail a care package. It had a little tag on it that said ALMOND COOKIES. It had some Hong Kong stamps on it, which totaled $70.10 (Hong Kong...
