Hi
In the US there is a Cinderella division in National stamp shows. I've
exhibited both general cinderella that included a wide range ("Cinderella
Diversity" and "Cataloging The Cinderellas'), a narrower range of poster
stamps ("Promoting US Places and Products), and very specific ("QSL Bureau
Stamps - The Early Years" and "Towards a QSL Bureau Stamp Catalog"). No
Golds yet but no Bronzes either in national level stamp shows.

PS: There is a minor class of revenue stamps called "postage stamps".

Cinderellas are for fun, Art

Great!
Mr. Herst, a true raconteur.

I had read in some early magazines the accepted norm was
"there is no place for any cinderella, in any exhibit". I find this
attitude surprising and rather elitist.
