Nells250 - I'm glad you like them, too. I think that fish often make excellent subjects for the engraver's craft. Here is another fish stamp that I admire: Tarpon ( Megalops atlanticus), designed and engraved by Gilbert Aufschneider, and issued by Gabon on July 15, 1964, Scott No. 172. - nethryk  |

This post keeps popping up and keeps tempting me to go thematical with fish/ fishing/ fishing lures. Seen a couple ebay lots of 1000 fish related for $40 but not sure if I want to just buy a lot or preverbaly go fishing for specifics. Have a feeling if I start its going to take over for awhile at least. Anyone with a bunch of dups looking for a trade??? |

That Trout is an amazing example. Absolutely stunning.
Of course I'm also loving the France Colonies too. |
