HCA stamp from Romania?
A collector has advised me that "Gibbons Stamp Monthly" January 2005
illustrates an Andersen stamp to be issued by Romania - it shows a portrait of HCA with Disney's little mermaid. It is part of a set of six stamps of famous people. Having searched Stanley Gibbons New Issues http://www.stanleygibbons.com/newissues/ (keywords "Romania 2005") I do not see any such set or HCA-stamp mentioned. Can anyone here confirm that this stamp is (to be) issued, and eventually send me a scan of it? Thanks in advance, and -- Best regards Ann Mette Heindorff (Mette) return address: heindorffhus at heindorffhus dot dk http://www.heindorffhus.dk ------ Outgoing messages.checked with Norton AV |

Thanks in advance, and -- Best regards Ann Mette Heindorff (Mette) return address: heindorffhus at heindorffhus dot dk http://www.heindorffhus.dk ------ Outgoing messages.checked with Norton AV Mette Page 57 of the January GSM is in two columns. The first column is an article entitled, "Romania looks to next year" and is based on a leaflet produced by Romania Post, and the second column is a display advert from what I assume might be the Romanian Postal Authority (web address given as www.romfilatelia.ro) describing stamp issues in 2005. The article summarises the proposed 2005 issues, and states, "The second issue is a similar anniversaries set but this time features six famous "foreigners", Hans Christian Anderson (sic), Greta Garbo, Henry Fond, Christian Dior, Jules Verne and Al;bert Einstein." It had already said, "The leaftlet does not give specific release dates". The advert (probably a reproduction of the same leaflet) actually has a few illustrations of the proposed issues, and indeed the Andersen stamp appears to include the face of a cartoon character. I have to say that the information on the website (in trhe English version go to "Stamps", then "Stamp Calendar 2005" differs from that given by Gibbons. Regards, Roger |

I can confirm the former: http://www.romfilatelia.ro/marci/calendar.php SFINTELE PASTI - Nr. de timbre : 1 ANIVERSARI - COMEMORARI PERSONALITATI (II) - H.C. Andersen, Dimitrie Gusti, Jules Verne, Albert Einstein, George Enescu. Nr. de timbre : 5 Holy Easter - No. of stamps: 1 Anniversaries, Commemoration - Personalities II - H.C.Andersen, Dimitrie Gusti, Jules Verne, Albert Einstein, George Enescu No. of stamps: 5 I haven't found out any more information on the said site, though. Neither the Romanian nor the English version seems to give further details, but I could be wrong. The Danish Nordfrim at www.nordfrim.dk publishes its own H.C. Andersen series, but the Romanian issue is not included (yet) as far as I can tell. You could of course ask them, but as you are Danish you might have been in touch with them already. It is not possible to order via the Romfilatelia site yet. You have a nice website, by the way. -- Dag T. Hoelseth http://www.geocities.com/dagtho/ |

Thank you, both Roger and Dag, for the very complete information, and thanks to Dag for your kind words about my HCA-site :-) Roger, could I ask you to send me a scan of the said article from Gibbons Stamp Monthly, at your convenience, please? The only Romanian stamps of the sort I have found on the Gibbons New Issues feature 2 Romanians (Magheru and Bibescu), plus Christian Dior, Henry Fonda and Greta Garbo.

The stamp you are interested in is in a set further down the list, just after the Easter stamp. I shall scan the article (if I can tame my machine)and email you privately. Regards, Roger |

... - very big snip - Mette I think the set you are referring to is the first one for 2005 and is detailed on the Romanian website I gave in my message. The stamp you are interested in is in a set further down the list, just after the Easter stamp. I shall scan the article (if I can tame my machine)and email you privately. Regards, Roger Roger, I have, of course, looked into the link you gave me. The set is mentioned in the Calendar 04 (April), and includes H.C. Andersen, Dimitrie Gusti, Jules Verne, Einstein, and George Enescu. but no further description, at least not what I can see here. The only description online is about Jules Verne. Thanks in advance for the scan -- it's no rush, just when you have the time. Regards Mette |
