Sc#2572 1979 Sheetlet.

Sc#2580 Transportation.

Sc#2607 1979 Unofficial Stamp of 1880. 1848

Unofficial stamps on stamps.
I can think of the Irish Fenian, and the above of 1848
Any others come to mind?

Maybe this one from Greece ?

Fascinating, thanks Vayolene.
I could not find an image of the original stamp, I wonder if it really existed.

Vignette of Helios the Sun God.
Looks like it may have been taken from a sculptured bust of Alexander the Great, an eidolin of Helios.

Here are the three stamps and their story (in french)

Hi Rod,

Fortunately I have the original stamps (Aegean Islands) and the Greek stamps in my Greek Mythology collection:

Aegean Islands 1912:



Greece 1947-50:

Wow!
Thanks Vayolene, Eli.

Nothing came up with Google.
Only Aegean I had were Italian.

It is wonderful to see them up close, super scans!

Alexander the Great as Helios (Roman Copy)

Received a nice addition from SCF member Calstamp (Thanks Jim)

Speculation Prevention
3 Pin Punctures

Note: On Parliament issues 3 pins point vertically, on the officials point left

So my collection is creeping up, 22 stamps now, from a known 79 punctures.


Mr. Jay Carrigan

For some reason the Eastern European countries never really interested me and do no know why,

Hello.
Yvert has a section for newspapers at the end of the book.
Guiding me through Yvert this is what I have seen and below what I have.
Regards.

Wow!
now that is really impressive.
Well done you, Roberto

My totals are different in my collection for the 3 hole punch's .

The pages in my collection shows these Scott numbers for the HARAMASLYUKKAL 'S are as follows 115a -126a {7 stamps } 335a- 375a {36 stamps } ,J32a -J43a {9 stamps}, J78a -J99a {21 stamps }, O1a -O14a {14 stamps } for a total of 87 stamps .

Older philatelic articles calls these 3 pin cancels but these were still used on mail and canceled with regular mail ,

How can my pages be different from others above ? JAY got 79 and I have 87 spaces for HARAMASLYIKKAL'S .

A quick count in the SG catalogue gives 100 different stamps existing with the three hole perfs:

49 regular stamps (same as Jay's count)

21 officials (same as Jay's count)

30 dues (same as floortrader's count but Jay's count was 9)

Again, Nigel to the rescue

.......and to be fair, Jay was quoting from Katalogus 2001

floortrader, can you check your source? I believe it should be HARMASLYUKKAL and not HARAMASLYUKKAL (extra "A"). If I'm right it might help to google the desired term.
