I found a stamp in my collection, that I put away years ago to avoid doing anything with it at that time. The time has come to see if I can get any information on it. It is printed on a translucent paper, and I had to place a piece of white paper behind the stamp to get a good scan. Any information about this stamp would be greatly appreciated. Stamp or label?
Thanks you! Jim (stampguyUSA)

I decide to post to Facebook, as I have some stamp collecting friends there. I got the same answer. Now, it is mounted in my Nepal album. It came as a pleasant surprise to me. It is imperforated and it on a translucent paper, I was told rice paper. Thanks again for you reply!

This sheet of stamps from Nepal, from a series on bio-diversity issued in 2012, ticks many thematic boxes, so I thought best to post it here:  |
