Indeed. The stamps,of Ajman may be unmitigated tosh cooked up a dodgy character on the make and a susceptible local administration, but they're lost in the river of dross that followed. It's right that catalogues don't list these stamps, wrong that they list so many more issued since. |

Was debating whether to post these, they stretch the limits of what one would call stamps. Ajman 1972. They are printed on thick, heavy, smooth, cardstock like paper and the image changes from a classic car to a "modern" car. More like a toy than a stamp. Stampworld lists the 2R and 3R for $9 and $12, unfortunately I don't have those. On the scan you might be able to make out the second image.  |

Quote: Was debating whether to post these, they stretch the limits of what one would call stamps. Thanks for posting, there is no need for anxiety, they exist, they have history and why not post? If you need to categorise, how about "Curiosities" ? These are called "Lenticular" Ajman's clumsy attempt in the early days, is mirrored in the Latest 2021 United States Stamps (Lenticular) I refer to them as labels, but I have them on genuine postage. Horrible things to try and mount, mine are in little bundles with rubber bands. Countries that have produced 3D stamps with one or more images Not lenticular movement Bhutan North Korea UAE Egypt Netherlands Austria Iraq Morocco New Caledonia Micronesia |

Gibby, mounting, hinges won't cut it, Archival double sided tape (circa $4) is the way to go, 4mm slip, will do.

Thanks for posting these Gibby01. I've not seen them before. I've been sorting Yemen stamps today and I thought this plastic stamp with a soft looking lion would complement the cars:   |

If you have the tiny stamps, that is Michel 2733-48. The larger versions are Mi 2717-32.
It is described as "Munich. Olympic Games", March 31,1973. Blocks of 16.
4 of the stamps are for summer events: Sailing, Wrestling, Judo and Fencing.
