Russia 1975 souvenir sheet

Hi,

I've found this sheet about a French/Russia philatelic
exhibition in 1975
url:http://stamps.delcampe.net/page/item/id_enchere,12614209,language,E.html

There is an issued stamp, but it has printed perforation
and cancel.

So, what's the status of this sheet ? It seems it
has no postal value, but was it issued (and printed)
officially by Russia post ?

I've bought one already, I'm happy to find a
Sower on a foreign document.

I collect stamps, philatelic items, and non-philatelic items
about the Roty Sower, see in French :
http://timbreposte.free.fr/mag-timbr...euse-roty.html

By the way, any relation/inspiration between the Nebraska
Sower and the French Sower ? Any "Sower stamp on stamp"
someone know of ?

I do not know the origin of these, sorry. But I have seen similar for several issues, including
this one:

Interesting sheets. I have three similar sheets, produced for CAPEX
'78. They are just souvenirs of a large stamp show in Toronto. The three
printing firms (Canadian Bank Note Company, British American Bank Note
company & Ashton-Potter) each designed a sheet for the show.

That is probably what these other interesting sheets are.

Use ROT-13 to decode my e-mail address.

The latter sheet commemorates the
10th anniversary of Gagarin's flight.
(price 15 kopecks)

The USSR did issue a mini-sheet
of 4 stamps for that same anniversary
on 12 April 1971. (scott 3844a to d),
but this sheet is neither shown nor
mentioned in Scott.

The stamp is listed as Yvert no. 1433 "50-year anniversary of diplomatic
relations between the Soviet Union and France".
There is no accompanying block, and judging from the canceled 6 kopek value,
and the new 15 kopek 'sheet value' I'd say it is not 'official'. There is no
relation I can see between this stamp and the French/USSR stamps on the
background.

Jan & Dominique,

It is Yvert 4133 (not 1433), issued in 1975.

There is no accompanying block, and judging from the canceled 6 kopek
value, and the new 15 kopek 'sheet value' I'd say it is not
'official'. There is no relation I can see between this stamp and the
French/USSR stamps on the background.

The French stamp is Yvert 129 (the only 10c sower on lined background,
issued on may 6th 1903.
The Russian one is Yvert 2372 celebrating Youth, issued in 1961.

No relations whatsoever with 1925 diplomatic relations or the 50th
anniversary.

Jan & Dominique,

It's Scott 4308.

value, and the new 15 kopek 'sheet value' I'd say it is not
'official'.

Well, I's not a stamp (as it's pre-canceled), but it may
have been issued by post, or it may be something like
the CNEP souvenir sheets in France (private, although
sadly listed in most French stamps catalogs).

There is no relation I can see between this stamp and the
French/USSR stamps on the background.

The French stamp is Yvert 129 (the only 10c sower on lined background,
issued on may 6th 1903.

No relations whatsoever with 1925 diplomatic relations or the 50th
anniversary.

There is a relation I see. the Sower is related
to stamp collecting (it's one of the best-known stamps,
virtually everybody collecting France has it)
and a symbol of France. If I had to choose a stamp that
represents France and French philately, I'd choose a Sower of Roty.
On the USSR stamp it seems to be a sickle and hammer,
I don't know how much popular the stamp himself is.

I agree with you : those CNEP (Association of French stamp dealers)
souvenir sheets should definitely *not* be listed in any catalog.

I would personnally choose a Marianne as the symbol of France.

But as there are so many different types of Mariannes in French
philately, I agree with you : Roty's Sower is unique and such is a very
good representation of Fr philately.

On the USSR stamp it seems to be a sickle and hammer

On the leaflet and on my Yvert catalog (Scott does not provide an image
for this stamp - which is Scott 2446) it is quite difficult to see.

I would say that the two individuals are holding flags ?

BTW Yvert describes the stamp as a tribute to Youth, whereas Scott
mentions a "Workers'monument".

The two chaps should definitely be young workers :-)))

So Dallay catalog thinks.

It's a stickle and a hammer (found through Google
with the proper keywords you gave)
