Hopflug Ítala 1933 with a black overprint?
Can I have a genuine Facit 165 if the overprint is black and the stamp
is cancelled with a Tollur cancel (that's probably OK according to Facit), but the black overprint? -- Mvh Toke "30-øres provisorierne fra 1955-1956" og Den Danske Postetat, DDPE: http://www.norbyhus.dk/ |

I have now taken a few photos of the overprint with my brand new Traveller USB-microscope (about 30 euros in the ALDI shop): http://www.norbyhus.dk/artiklermm/di...r/hopflug.html Now I'm not in doubt : it's a faked overprint made by photocopy and it's easy to see the coal grains. Thanks Victor for trying and Blair for posting a nice genuine stamp! -- Mvh Toke "30-øres provisorierne fra 1955-1956" og Den Danske Postetat, DDPE: http://www.norbyhus.dk/ |

Hello Toke, Could you tell me a little bit more on this USB microscope ? For instance a screen capture showing this product or a copy of the 1st page of the manual (if there is a picture of the microscope on it) I made a search on ALDI's Internet site (French version) http://www.aldi.fr/index.shtml but there is no search engine on this site :-( Many thanks in advance ! -- All the best, Pierre Courtiade courtiade at free dot fr |

Bonsoir Pierre, Une mauvaise page, en allemande, se trouve ici : http://www.traveler-service.de/popup...skop/index.htm Amicalement, Bonsoir Victor, Merci beaucoup ! C'est exactement ce que je recherchais. Je vais pouvoir montrer cela à Aldi France pour savoir si un jour ce sera en vente ici. [Many thanks Victor, that is precisely what I was searching for. I thus will be able to show that to Aldi France and ask them if one day they are going to sell this USB microscope here. Thanks also to Toke for the information on this relatively cheap device] -- All the best, Pierre Courtiade |

Here you go Tony. http://www.cijoint.fr/cj201011/cijglZWLFF.jpg Others have confirmed what I was about to say, namely that a black overprint is not in SG, and the images posted certainly confirm that. General Balbo's adventures certainly created a lot of expensive stamps! I have had the good fortune to acquire another Italian triptych pair at a very reasonable price. 4 pilots acquired plus an odd stamp, leaving only 15 and a half pairs to get (a friend has just acquired the last in the set after several years trying). See http://www.italianstamps.co.uk/kingd...ail/index.html for a nice block (I have another similar block for the other denomination). Even at the time having 20 copies of each denomination caused an uproar in the philatelic press due to the total cost of 1500 lire at a time when an ordinary air letter cost 1.25 lire. Does anyone know what the USD/ITL or GBP/ITL exchange rates were in 1933? -- Tony Clayton |

Could you tell me a little bit more on this USB microscope ? Hello Pierre, (Thanks Victor). There are several sites showing the microscope, e.g. http://www.aldi.co.uk/uk/html/offers...uys3_14842.htm The problem with Aldi is that they sometimes offer special goodies in a limited period so one should buy when it shows up. Though, you can always return it in 30 days if you don't like it (in Denmark at least) - but for 299 DKkr. it was a find and very easy to use. It can't replace a scanner as you can't take a photo of a whole stamp - but it fantastic when you need a snapshot of a small area of the stamp. It gives you an RGB picture 1280 x 1024 which you easily can manipulate/resize in Paint Shop Pro etc. I know that several of my friends were to late - the microscope was sold out, so it's probably wise to ask your local Aldi-store about the microscope. In the manual I can see that it is produced by Supra Foto-Electronik-Vertriebs-GmbH Denisstrasse 28A D-67663 Kaiserslautern Germany -- Mvh Toke "30-øres provisorierne fra 1955-1956" og Den Danske Postetat, DDPE: http://www.norbyhus.dk/ |

Does anyone know if Aldi has stores in Canada?
We have Costco (similar?) but I could not find these microscopes there. Blair |
