Received this yesterday. It seems disrespectful but, on the other hand, if the line was vertical and between Charles and Harry, it would be very topical  Not sure what the pink bit is, has the stamp been re-used?  |

danielLet's be respectful now - those British and their Monarchy - They ruled the World (at a time....) and stamps too  I am of FRANCE genealogy (Quebec....1st ancestor to help Champlain and be recognized as one of the 1st colonizer of - just french stuff) Funny thing: I still like the Monarchy (yours) Both my Grandfathers received (for WWII) the O.B.E medals - and I am proud (even as a "frenchie" - LOL I am proud we finally got a Canadian Flag and stopped using the Union Jack LOL ! ....we are still in the Confederation........

In the past couple of days, I received a package from Gene ( djcmh ) containing a new copy of the 2023 Stanley Gibbons Catalogue. Thanks for that, Gene. Although it appears that you went to the trouble of getting the stamps hand cancelled (much appreciated), some other postal clerk somewhere else along the way apparently decided that those red cancels were too faint to prevent re-use, and so has christened this nice array of stamps with a Sharpie marker..... sigh. Sadly, these are headed for the bin.   Oh how sad - they were nicely lightly hand postmarked by my favorite counter clerk. |
