Just came across this old-time cinderella. Since I don't recall it being posted previously, I'm doing so now:

Indeed there are. At least 4 in fact.
It has been described as a set of 5 but there may be some differences of colour causing varieties.

1. Design colour Sepia, Pony Express Vignette Orange-Yellow
2. Bright Lilac and Black/Grey
3. Red and Pale Green
4. Brown and Light Blue
5. New Blue and Yellow-Ochre

The latter is closest to the example shown by wt1 but the difference in colour is obvious.

Oh yes, the colours are my choice...that's to say, as I see them.

Londonbus1....no scans ,sorry

Is it on cover? I notice the paper in the background. Too bad it wasn't tied to the cover by a postmark or other marking. Very nice, I like the overall design.

Actually, the Garfield Coil FDC is where my cinderella came from. Someone used it on the cover (in lieu of a cachet)...looks like the stamp was issued in conjunction with the APS Convention so it tied in:

That is very nice. The cover I posted had a area for the poster stamp but it was not applied, quite a shame as the poster stamp adds so much to the appearance and value.
