where is Travancore ?
ok,
maybe...Trincomali or Karikal. "rodney" pookiethai@NOSPAM iprimus.com.au wrote in message ... I'd check on that Barry, that appears to be Tamil (Toothukudi) Tamil Nadu State which is the Eastern side of the Ghat Mountains Google Madurai and Tuticorin rodney "phantomm_1" "Asia-translation" That is an interesting map you have there Rodney. I see it shows Madras as still part of the Nizam's Dominions. I suspected you of conservative leanings, but turning the clock back that far? (Though I've failed to find another, more recent, map of a suitable size.) T One of my maps shows Madura and Tuticorin for Travancore. |

Have you studied Ohm's Law.

To return this conversation to the elevated intellectual level it had
reached at one point ... Here is a Travancore cover (which arrived today) addressed to Cochin State, showing the arrangement by which Travancore and Cochin exchanged mails with each other, without additional charge: http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...over-front.jpg http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...cover-back.jpg Tony of the Antipodes phantomm_1 wrote: no, thank you.

"Asia-translation" To return this conversation to the elevated intellectual level it had reached at one point ... Nothing exists except atoms and empty space; everything else is opinion. Here is a Travancore cover (which arrived today) addressed to Cochin State, showing the arrangement by which Travancore and Cochin exchanged mails with each other, without additional charge: Serendipity again I had a part cancel "EXPERIMEN" and had been most curious, thanks for posting those very nice images. That's very convenient, you can collect Cochin, and have a closet collection of Travancore at the same time |

So you've come around to the idea of inverted letters, have you,
Rodney? I'll raise the stakes to an inverted right 'S' on a 3 Chuckram http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...avancore13.jpg and hang the expense!

Ahem, not collecting Travancore Tony?
I tug my forleock to your random specimens that you just seem to have on hand. I am having a marriage tiff with Travancore, bloody watermarks, a right pain in the donkey, I find I can only spend a brief time with them before I lose faith. I would think I need the very expensive SG watermark machine if I need to go deeper. I leave you with a few SG1 examples. There were (or supposed to be) just two colours, dark blue and light blue. http://cjoint.com/data/lrmGuwVw11.htm rodney "Asia-translation" wrote in message ...

Rodney, when you say 'SG 1', I assume you are speaking in Simplified
terms. SG 1, in Part 1 terms, was on laid paper, and I would be prepared to make a modest wager that not all the stamps in your scan are on laid. The watermarks, though, certainly are a bed of nails. One (and a very good one) reason for avoiding Travancore for places - such as Barwani, to name but one - that didn't plague the poor, honest collector with watermarks. ...
