Belgium question by
KenK
I have two Belgian definitives ~1960 stamped with a large 'T", almost as
big as the stamp. Evidently handstamped rather than overprinted as one is
stamped at an angle. They look like a rubber stamp was used. I didn't see
anything in Scott.
Anyone know?
TIA
Ken

unsticking self-stick stamps by
Pedro
Hello all,
Can anybody suggest me the best way to remove paper from self-stick
stamps? I've read that lighter fluid works very well in most cases, and it
was good up until now. Some recent self-adhesive U.S. stamps I've received
on letters are almost impossible to unstick without breaking them...

South Australia Official Newspaper Wrapper?! by
Joshua McGee[_2_]
This: http://tr.im/iiOT
I have not seen anything like this before. Why would there need to be
an OS newspaper wrapper in the first place?
I may be missing something obvious.

9th of August 2008 I promised Mette to post the following poem after
she had passed away:
Do not stand at my grave and weep;
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
