I have a low tolerance to heat,
my peppers have to be very mild.
I do have Cayenne pepper in my first aid box
to gargle when I feel the flu is coming.
Kills it dead, (but hurts a tad)

Can anyone tell the difference between etiquettes from China, Hong Kong and Taiwan? I can't. Help please.

Cannot prove Taiwan Pete,
Hope this helps some

These were not tied to cover, and I don't recall where
I got the info from,
They really need verification.

Peterethio,

In your pic, the following are definitely from Taiwan (ROC):

Row 1, labels #1-#2
Row 2, labels #1-#3

The others, I cannot be certain.

*******

Rod,

The first red label in your pic is in traditional script. I've never seen a red one from Taiwan (ROC). So if it is China (PRC), then it would be a pretty early one (1950s or very early 1960s). Are you sure it's China and not Hong Kong? Either way, I've never seen a red one! Thanks for posting that pic!

Thanks khj. Five more identified. I find many of these etiquettes really hard to identify.

Thanks for the heads up Khj,

Which category would this come under? Etiquettes? Label?


USA - "Officially Sealed". (Another of my random stamp show collection..)

Officially Sealed is an actual post office use stamp, used to seal envelopes sent from the Dead Letter Office (at least in Canada). Scott numbers start with 'OX'. I do not have a US catalogue. Note in Canada catalogue says used copies would be creased from sealing envelopes.

Here is one I have not seen in this thread.

I have hundreds of international covers here that have been sent to me, so I am sure I will have some odd postal labels their if anyone collects them let me know.

Regards
Gavin

Unforunately, these aren't mine, but a few weeks ago someone posted a whole array of cinderellas on this site, and I pulled these examples out of their scans as they appear to be airmail etiquettes:
