Today I stumbled upon this series from Zaïre issued in 1975 honouring the International Women's Year and featuring women lawyers at work, again wearing the fancy robes like on the issue from Cameroon I posted previously:

Hello stamp friends, Hope all of you are doing well. Taking a pause in our Caribbean courthouse tour to show a beautiful maxi-card from Monaco that I received today from the Netherlands. Pictured is the Paris Palace of Justice. Special to our esteemed administrator ( Admin), I have begun some preliminary work on an article for the newsletter i am entitling "The Philately of Justice."

Hello stamp friends, Hope you are all well. Here is a stamp of the US flag and Supreme Court building. I think this building will be getting a lot of use in the coming days. Also a commemorative cover honoring the Judiciary Act of 1789, also showing the Supreme Court building, signed by the late Judge Robert Bork. Be well and enjoy the Fall! And, of course, stamps relieve stress!

Hello stamp friends. I hope all of you are well. It is Thanksgiving week here in the United States, so whether in the States or overseas, I wish all of you the very best of that day, which is one of family and friendship. Here is a great stamp from Monaco, celebrating the 50th anniversary of their Palace of Justice in 1980.

Hello Stamp Friends and Happy Holidays! I will be taking the next two weeks off, visiting relatives and not taking my computer. But, before I leave, here is an interesting revenue stamp from British Columbia, celebrating the centennial of the province with an illustration of the old Victoria courthouse, which closed in 1965. It was the home of the British Columbia Maritime Museum until 2015, but I was unable to find out how it is currently being used. I want to wish all of you the best of the New Year. Wilford (Will)

Happy New Year stamp friends. Hope you are all well. I am now back from vacation and have begun work on my article for the newsletter. I thought we would travel to Asia to begin a new year. The stamp is the Supreme Court building for the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (North Korea). I have to admit to being curious as to what exactly that Supreme Court does, given the nature of the government. In any event, here's to another year of happy stamping! PS I would be very interested in obtaining this stamp and/or an FDC. Can anyone help?

Hello stamp friends, Hope you have all had a pleasant Saturday. Today's courthouse stamp is found on a cover from Bangladesh, featuring the Court of Justice in Dhaka.
Interesting destination as well. I doubt there is much mail between Bangladesh and Finland.

Hello stamp friends, Hope you are all well. My job has kept me away from the computer, and my collections. However, I thought I would post this nice stamp from Ghana showing its Supreme Court building.

Hello stamp friends, I want to thank Salentin for the great Four Courts stamp from Ireland. Here is a stamp booklet cover of the same building also from Ireland. I am sorry but I do not know the year of issuance. Everyone please be well and have a pleasant weekend.

Many thanks for the additional information. Now I have another stamp and booklet to look for! Next time I am in Dublin I will have to check out the courthouse. In keeping with our Irish booklet theme, here is another booklet cover with the Cork Courthouse. I know this issue is from 1988. Take care.

A stamp friend reminded me I posted this booklet cover about ten months ago. Oh, well. I thought about deleting it, but I think I will leave it up as it complements this little Irish thread going on here. I would be interested in hearing others thoughts about deleting reposts. And just because I think no post should be without a stamp, here is an Irish stamp about the centennial of the Land Law (Ireland) Act of 1881, which gave tenants dual ownership rights with landlords, and would have been adjudicated in both courthouses pictured.

Hello stamp friends, I know it has been a little while. Just a few things keeping me busy. I hope you will all take the time to read the latest issue of the newsletter. One of the articles is mine about "The Philately of Justice." My thanks to the editors My wife Joanne did all the scanning, I am useless at such things. Here is our courthouse for the day, a beautiful souvenir sheet from Belgium showing old and new courthouses. Have a great day.
