Between the ages of twelve and fifteen, when my eyes and my courage were present to face boots of the same stamp. I gave them a name, meteor  throwing ball  sword Sower  nipple sower  And my favourites, sickle sower  lumbar belt sower  |

Those are quite nice! somewhere i have Sower with a nova- I haven't yet looked too deeply into the Sowers for such artifacts. Marriane will take me a while I'm just now half way through the 3 Francs!
Please show more if you have them!

It's nice, thank you for your welcome. Very happy to see you here and excellent presentation of varieties etc. I looked at all posted varieties and your interpretations (in french) A comment that for many of us, WERT please correct me, the "anneau-lune" are what we name "donuts" - interesting how the french catalogs include "donuts" as varieties !!

"Doughnut" is the officially correct spelling (American dictionaries)- donut - "According to some sources, the simplified spelling was used intentionally to make the word easier for foreigners to pronounce" not that it's all that important  |

donut = "anneau lune" actually. Each culture has its own poetry.

today while beginning to sort through the Semeuse cameé 10 c I pulled these out with more obvious issues. All are Yvert #138 thick or fat chiffre, and I haven't yet tried to detedrmine which Type they might be, but- a larg, though flattened anneau-lune below the back hand  I have another "super nova" somewhere, but it has numerous issues compared to this one  and there's this one- this one has issues!  |

Different but still SOWER - no thread for these Post Cards DETAILS: June 14 1937 Post card for Paris International Expo 1937 franked with a 20c SOWER - Maury 190V lilas-rose Type V - This stamp was issued in 1926 and removed in 1941 which explains why it found itself on this Card - I wonder if my FRANCE aficionado friends like it and it is highly probable one gave it to me LOL !!
