Exraordinary!
Glad you posted that, I had a page from the late Mette Heindorff, that had similar
examples, as well as Austria, dashed if I can find it right now.

I have also lost, how to find the date on the Austrian Don Quixote
in microprint (From the late SCF member "Rein")

I have a list of 140 odd microprint examples on US stamps.

Thank you, hope others have examples from their country collections I read about the Böhmen and Mahren stamps in a book I have and was happy to find the link to the exhibitions side, gives a lot of good information.

Hope you will show some examples from the US

Sorry Viking, I have no examples with images, just a list

(Mette's were images, still searching)

The list is from 2005, days of the wild west in computer terms
Our newsgroup was very active RCSD
and we were swapping images in our journey into Philately.

The Author : Is / was JS deboo
That's all I have

The Austrian Don Quixote, was a masterpiece by "Rein"
I really regret losing that one

Here, an example (if there is any interest for you)
For the record, Canada has hidden year dates on her stamps.

Non Philatelic, but in a similar vein.

Like most things, man (and women) when alone, like to leave messages
in the most obscure ways.

(When I did home renovations as a 30yo, I left a sealed bottle in the foundations, of the time, it was completed, and who I was)

The mysterious doodles hidden in a 1,300-year-old book

Lot of interesting things in this thread. I have seen those Bohemia and Moravia stamps for decades, and never knew about this.

A Inscription I found in a book "Frimærker Folk og Filateli" translation "Stamps People and Filateli" a good way to go to weekend

It writes: Winther 1972 "To my Love, for diversion in the dark Winther evenings" Your Anna
