Peter, counting down top left to right, labels 11 and 13 are Singapore
Nice to have 14 and 15 together, same script 15 is a common French Colony icon, perhaps French Morocco?

Illustrating the ingenuity of man (or woman) the creator of this amazing collage is to be congratulated. Not sure where this came from, a blog perhaps? The creator has built this from the insides of Air Mail envelopes. ...and who of us haven't look inside the flimsies and marvelled at the design? Bravo! unknown person.  |

Indeed. I have seen some of these before.

Quote: I also have some etiquettes whose country of origin I don't know. Can anyone help please? Your etiquette #4 is shown on this blog in usage from the USA (that also answers one of Rod's questions). I have seen #3 used from the US as well. http://airmaillabels.blogspot.com/2...over_30.htmlNote that the blog is specific to collecting airmail etiquettes. Perhaps a search through its contents will identify a few more. Edit: snooped a bit more through that blog and found this reference to your etiquette #9 and #10 - Zimbabwe. http://airmaillabels.blogspot.com/2...-africa.htmlRyan |

Welcome back Ryan, havn't read you for a while. Thanks for the ID's esp zimbabwe! Quote: . . . wait, CV? You mean there is actually a catalog of these things?
Maybe not a Catalogue, Riga stamps prices they sell airmail etiquettes. Having said that, there are several catalogues of airmail etiquettes in existence, none owned by moi, but I don't think the examples are priced. |

By Zeppelin (source or owner unknown) Etiquettes look like they are printed on a propaganda postcard?  |

Rod, thanks for the CVs. Which catalogue do you have for etiquettes?
Here are scans of a few more etiquettes

  The hottest stuff I ever tasted Rod was an Ethiopian dish cooked for us by a local worker in Ethiopia. After we tried a little of the dish we rinsed the meat under hot running water. It was still too hot for us to eat. When Ethiopians come to Australia they often put a couple of dessert spoons of chilli paste in the cooking to similate some of their 'berri berri'. Even the smell of the packaged berri berri will clear your sinuses. |
