Beautiful stuff Alan,
Your airmail etiquette is not cancelled
just a convenient place to strike the envelope :)

Your first Braniff etiquette CV $5 each
your middle braniff CV $3 each
The last etiquette not seen before

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.

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.html

Note 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.

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.

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

Wow. Thanks for all the help Rod and Ryan. 24 hours ago I had a page of etiquettes that I had no idea where they came from. Now I'm down to 8!

I now have a site where I may get it even lower and check the ones I have already.

Thanks heaps.

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.
