I picked up this set of Sudan's first airmails (Scott C1-C3) at our last club meeting. I'm a sucker for overprints, all the more so when you get something of a juxtaposition with the camel post rider and the air mail overprint.

Kirk, it looks like your post count dropped by two. Did you get penalized two "quality posts" for that joke?

I hope they don't start giving demerits for bad jokes -- if so, I'll be in negative numbers by Spring.

That's a seriously nice looking set and the overprint adds to it!

Oh man! If we start getting post demerits for bad jokes, sarcastic comments, stupid ideas, etc. I'll be right there with Kirk in no time!

From what I hear, Camel air is a smokin' mode of transport.

I got the mental image of a helicopter carrying a camel postman (with camel) around.
