I may have asked this before, cannot locate
these in my SOTW...help!

50c Trans-Mississippi reissue (1 of 9 stamps from miniature sheet)
Scott #3209g, SG # MS3442 (50c stamp of the 9 stamps)

Norman Rockwell issue (2 of 4 stamps from souvenir sheet)
Scott #2840a and #2840b, SG #MS2920 (top 2 stamps of block of 4)

I don't know how SG assigns individual catalog numbers to single stamps from the miniature sheets, so I just gave you the MS#### catalog numbers.

Thanks khj
I could see the position of the Norman Rockwell
the slot for the TM completely blank in SOTW
so thanks a bunch.

the top is a reprint of Trans-Mississippi Scott 291 Sage Green

Yes, not a patch on the original, would be close to be
the first stamp in the world with a dog on it.

Come on...could that be true? I'm going to have to go in search of a Bahamas stamp with a pineapple, a conch shell and a poodle...



(I'm not serious about the poodle, but I am serious about finding an earlier dog...)

1898? I doubt it.
It was mainly kings, queens, coat of arms
posthorns and horses.
As usual 22crows will pop up with something.

I have 432 dogs on stamps in my collection,
according to that list, dogs did not appear
to be a topical until around 1956, with Laika etc
and the dogs that went into space.

I cannot see any paw prints on any stamps prior to that,

I have an 1885 issue, but I cannot vouch for its validity

How about Newfoundland 1887 Newfoundland dog (SG49)?

You are amazing!

I don't have the stamp,
but the pesky critter is on the header page
(and 1880! a new low date)

Hindsight would suggest Newfoundland a great initial search area.

Some more I cannot locate in Stanley Gibbons SOTW
thanks for any assistance

3373 ($3 Mars Pathfinder)

4091 (1c Tiffany lamp)[2007; 2008]
4092 (2c Navajo jewelry)[2004; 2004 reprint with brighter deep turqoise blue frame; 2006 no USPS microprinting; 2006 with USPS microprinting; 2007]
4093 (4c Chippendale chair)

I've mentioned the different varieties of the sheet stamps for the American Design Series. I don't think the varieties are listed in SOTW. All 3 of those stamps also exist as coils.

Oh yeah, I forgot...

The 25c hologram is a stamped envelope issued in 1990. Does SOTW list stamped envelopes?

Thanks KHJ
we have a problem,
my numbers are well out.


edit: looking at the missing numbers around 4091
I'll give them temporary numbers and go to the library tomorrow
cheers


Thanks for the hologram, no SOTW does not
but the year is OK for moi.

3373 fits well for the mars pathfinder, not listed though in SOTW

Here is our problem:

I may have made a typo? I will check again later.

What year is your SOTW? Even Scott has had to renumber the American Design Series because of all the incessant varieties.
