Today's effort, orange vendors. Tough to find on stamps. Plentiful on postcards.

Today I spent time on orange crate labels. As with my orange vendor page, little is found philatelically. Not much in postcards unless one takes an interest in the shipping crates with labels on the ends.

This recent page on relationships took a couple of days of interneting and condensing the backgrounds on the subjects. I found out about the friendship tree here at TSF. The Bahamas-USA contract I stumbled across after seeing the stamp on Colnect. The Italy-Paraguay issue I had for some time and didn't know how to handls it. I hope I found out successfully.

Recent activities have focused on the pomelo, one of the original (non-hybrid) citrus. Now page 1 is in need of revision. And I have 2 additional pomelo stamps on the way, so I will see how to work them in.

Interesting-looking Pomelos from Netherlands Antilles and Thailand. Never seen the flesh that colour before. Of the various species grown here in Israel the flesh is always a very pale yellow. But boy, are they tasty !!! Londonbus1

I finally am able to put my South Africa "Falling Ladder" plate flaw to use, along with my newly-acquired Dominica EFO "debris on paper" EFO. This may be my favorite page with the variety of philatelic and other items - postage stamps, poster stamps, trade card, and printing errors in keeping with Display Class Exhibit guidelines (although this is strictly a collection, not an exhibit.)
I do wish I had a taller stamp to replace the short item from Morocco.
