I really like this block of stamps featuring a ferris wheel. So how about adding to this topic pics of stamps featuring things that go around, and around . . . Feel free to make them as "punny" as you would like! Bonus to anyone who can show me another stamp with a ferris wheel - I can't think of any others at the moment  |

The wheels on the bus go round and round, round and round, round and round. The wheels on the bus go round and round, all through the town.  |

I like those sneaky ferris wheels you are finding! That's pretty sharp to remember those.

Good one!  Back to the Ferris Wheel, here's a series that fits the topic:  Stamp #1 has a Merry-go-Round or Carousel that fits the "go around" topic; Stamp #2 has a Ferris Wheel in the background; Stamp #3 has a round target; Stamp #4 has ?? ... maybe you can call some of that fruit round ?? |

OK, not a stamp or anything like that but how about a little history on the Ferris Wheel? This link gives the history of the wheel and how it came to be. It happened at the 1893 Colombian Exposition in Chicago. http://www.hydeparkhistory.org/newsletter.html |
