It must be true . It was in the Times. 8*)

Columbus Depicted with a Telescope on St. Kitts-Nevis Issue.
New York Times - Sunday, October 24, 1920, Page 14.

but the real question is...
why did Columbus' mum name him after a city in Ohio?

That fellow is certainly an enigma,
All the books I have read, states there are no surviving pictures of him,
yet I swear I saw a painting of him recently on a stamp.

Has she? ;-)

"The original name in 15th century Genoese language was Christoffa[2]
Corombo[3] (pronounced [kri'?t?ffa ku'?u?bu]) "

That's right, the inventor is said to be a Hans Lippershey, who lived in
Middelburg, Netherlands.
However, there are pictures of a telescope in the »Historica
scholastica«, which is dated before 1241.

Well then, is the famous St Kitts, and now, the Bulgarian discovery
"errors on stamps" or not?
