Hi
Sorry to contradict you Mette but the logo as seen on the stamp actually is from the danish steam ship co. DFDS. Nevertheless it was a good guess.

I didn't know that DFDS perfins also appear on Swedish stamps. Maybe Rodney could point us to the web where the Swedish perfin he refers to, is shown.

This may be it Mette, but just a guess.
They have shipping interests in Sweden as well, however, if it had that status in the 1920's is another question. http://www.svitzerwijsmuller.com/Abo...e+Information/ "Mette" wrote in message . .. skrev i en meddelelse oups.com...

The company is the Scandinavian branch of the Svitzer-Wijsmuller group,
founded in August 2001 by the merging of Svitzer (Denmark) and Wijsmuller Bros (Baarn, The Netherlands). The group is itself part of the A.P. Moller (Maersk) group. It operates today the most powerful tug fleet in the world. Svitzer was founded in 1833 and owns today the towage and salvage companies Roda Bolaget (Sweden) and Esvagt A/S (Denmark). Wijsmuller was founded in 1906 as Wijsmuller Bureau. Company website: http://www.svitzerwijsmuller.com/ Ivan Sache, 27 November 2003 "Mette" wrote in message . .. skrev i en meddelelse oups.com...

Hi Rod,
OK, I found the image, and could also access the Lithuanian link as such, but couldn't make much of it, at least not in the philatelic sense. It seems to be a company with headquarters in Kaunas ... Mette "Rod" skrev i en meddelelse ... Hi Mette, I used Google, (Images), and used the search criteria "Denmark Perfins" Up came 29 images, including the Maltese Cross I could not confirm the links authenticity as www.kalnieciai.lt cannot be accessed (by me at least) Maltese Cross-Sweden perfins stamps 184 x 216 pixels - 5k - jpg www.kalnieciai.lt "Mette" wrote in message . .. skrev i en meddelelse oups.com...

My question is now whether DFDS perfins appear also on Norwegian stamps? Regards Mette ============================================== Hello Mette and all. Did you know that DFDS also issued its own stamps? These were similar to the railway parcel stamps issued is a number of countries (eg UK, Belgium, Denmark, etc..) but were used for mail / parcels carried on ferry boats. DFDS ferry boat parcel stamps : #03 http://cjoint.com/data/gAp7PPjtb5.htm #07 http://cjoint.com/data/gAqLsyVGkm.htm #15 http://cjoint.com/data/gApJIK7V14.htm A 1977 card franked with the safe DFDS perfin (different stamps). http://cjoint.com/data/gAqOIlriN4.htm At the 2004 Salon du Timbre, Danish collector Kurt Hansen won a Silver medal for his exhibit entitled "The Shipping Company DFDS" Denmark also had overprinted regular stamps for ferry boat mail (overprint : Postfærge). An additional fee was charged for this service and they are listed in the AFA catalogue. http://cjoint.com/data/gApRtGFCPu.htm http://cjoint.com/data/gApOdXxmOF.htm Blair |
