(Rod shakes his head) I spent hours Googling for zilch, I am obviously a dunce at Googling. Next time I'll go straight to the source, you Steve  Thanks a bunch. PS: I voted that site in the French "Le Top Site" as it was so fab, (was number 34 from 400) I'll post the link, as a reminder to me, on links to good, and unusual stamp links tiny.cc/d0jj9w

Monaco, Sc473, 20c Brown, Red Brown, Red & Olive, issued 1st June 1960 Franklin D Roosevelt with six fingers: one of my favourite French engravers, Barlangue, got it terribly wrong.  Monaco, ScC16 50-cent Violet Airmail Stamp, issued on 15th May 1947 1985 Exhibition Advertising Label:  Monaco, Centenary Stamp Exhibition Label, 5th-8th December 1985, Monte Carlo |

Another thread with no activity! Here are 3 more souvenir sheets from Monaco that I picked up at Capex '78. A little bit better ROI in this case though. I love these stamps too! Monaco put out some beautiful stamps over the years.

I've shown 4 stamps from this set already at thestampforum.boards.net/post/73274/thread, but this week I received another four:  These are issues of the "War orphans" semi-postal set from 1919 overprinted with the date of the wedding of Princess Charlotte and a new value. I now have 8 stamps out of the whole set of 10 values. One of the missing two is still within range, but the highest denominations has a CV in the 5000+ Euro range, so until I win the lottery, I don't see it happening... |

FOUR SEASONS OF THE ORANGE S u n k e n D i e P r o o f s
These have been in transit through France's La Poste, and per their tracking were given to the carrier on a certain date, then for 7 weeks shown as in transit. I figured them gone forever.
But today they showed up in a registered envelope franked with only a barcode registration label and 4 postage stamps. All undated, uncancelled.
(Any toning in my images are from my junky scanner.)
I have a set in black which I have not previously shown. I've seen odd singles in black plus one additional set in black. This is the first I have encountered in green.
Proofs are signed by the stamp designer and die engraver.
These are for a series of miniature sheets featuring various fruits as they appear in nature in the 4 seasons.
The sheets are printed in multi-color, similar to what one would find with a Giori Press.
But I have not yet been able to find any printing specs on the sheets.
This is an example of the issued sheet (snagged from the net) |
