bookbndrbob, your colorful 30F Afars & Issas stamp remind me a stamp issued by Israel in 2020 about CYMK color printing  From Israel Philatelic Service: The most common method of color printing is known as CMYK, which is an acronym for the basic colors that, when combined, create the full range of hues. Combining the correct amounts of Cyan (blue), Magenta (pink) and Yellow in the printing press makes it possible to achieve most of the colors needed to print stamps. |

Being new and just getting back into collecting I don't have much now. However, I do love the Topical categories and this thread has me leaning towards fish, until something else catches my eye LOL.
