Tunisia is the one country where stamp design improved after independence.

That's a beautiful stamp, YeaPolska. Is the miniature sheet itself engraved as well?

Rod222, a nice packet stamp from Tunisia, but your scan looked too "flat" for it to be an engraved stamp. It is actually printed by letterpress (as termed "Bdr." in its entry within the Michel catalogue). GLENN

Of course, thanks Glenn,
Force of habit, always read the right hand side as Sculptit.
Not on my game there.

So the thread author, only wants Recess printed stamps here?

Rod222, The thread author wording below the title on the main options page reads: "This forum is about the men and women who hand engraved the dies from which recess engraved stamps are printed." Personally, I have no problem with letterpress being included if the process is stated. GLENN

The stamp part is engraved, you can quite clearly feel the ridges, the rest of the sheet is offset though, feels quite smooth.
