Bonus (I assume composite) photo of a guy swimming in stamps. The text says you could send off for an actual copy of the photograph so you could check they were real stamps. Odd flex

Oh my there are some great adverts in the stamp book I bought today. I can't help but think that the last one was incorrectly included as it was in the part that only had philatelic adverts

Went to the LPS stamp fair today and got this haul for £39
Noice!
Book is from 1897 and has some brilliant adverts in it.

These two (fugly*) stamps were released 60 years ago tomorrow so I guess it's 160 years of International Telecommunications Union now!
*Reckon you can get throw out of stamp club for insulting stamps?
Was looking for rememberance-y stamps but these caught my eye

Feeling at least 38% more spoopy than anticipated. Pls enjoy these movie monster stamps. Unfortunately I don't have the Bela Lugosi Dracula one - many goth tears will surely flow.

Sweden, 1983.
Commemorating Swedish winners of the Nobel Prize for Chemistry. (Couldn't find any peace prize ones in my collection in the time I had)
Maybe you'd have more luck in another category Donnie? I guess you have just as much chance of winning the Chemistry one

Turnip is being a bit clingy as the weather has turned. That said she was AWOL until 22:30 yesterday which freaked us out and had me doing circuits of the neighbourhood with a bag of cat treats. Nothing makes you realise how daft your cat's name is like having to shout it whilst out alone after dark

I found myself wondering what Georgie C would make of the recent address to the Generals?

UK, 1996. Whooper swan
Or is it whopper, Nigel*?
For the non Brits, our pound-shop Oswald Mosely who pushes the lie that Romanian immigrants are eating our swans - failing to note that swans are mostly migratory.

Austria, 1920.
I do love an over-print.
This one was for the Carinthia referendum held to decide if the area should join the fledgling Yugoslavia or remain as part of Austria. Despite 70% of the population speaking Slovene 59% voted to stay in Austria. Still Austria now.

Penrhyn, Northern Cook islands, 1982
Bit late with stamp of the week but became inspired today noticing several posts mentioning the queen of hearts on the 28th anniversary of her death on the 31st. I'd assumed it was a rounder number given the number of posts but hey.

I've spent the last week and a bit knee deep in Dwarf Fortress. It is one of the most ridiculous games of all time. I love the gem mining and the random crap the game throws at you. I recently had a wereskink infestation. 'fun' ensued obvs.

Stamp of the week, late as I was waiting til after the vibrator decorating contest so I didn't spoil the reveal. Yes I know it's shit kerning and stuff but the rainbow was nice to do

I divided them into topics then went though an online catalogue one topic at a time putting them into 5 year envelopes. When they're all done I'll go through the catalogue with each envelope and shove them into a stock book in chronological order
