Oh it's not delivery, these are acquisitions of the week that I only finally get to scan and upload on the week-end... Though we do have Saturday post delivery in France. And very often Saturday is the only time I can go pick up something that's waiting for me at the post office.

Some sort of pop-up stamp from Spain commemorating 100 years of air mail service. Not quite sure how you are meant to use it, and I didn't want to risk ripping it.

A filler stamp I should have gotten a long time ago, but many other higher priority items got in the way. This is the Monaco air mail issue from 1963 celebrating 50 years since Roland Garros first crossed the Mediterranean by air.
