Thank you.

"As far as composers is concerned though the Austrian composer's
set of 1922 surely must be a very early example."

What am I missing?
I don't see it in Scott

OOPS, now I see it
Scott B50 -56, where all is explained

Hahahaha, That Collin, likes pulling our leg
that's miss curtis for sure.

(But I did look twice)

When did music first appear on the stamp scene?

A Beethoven local stamp from Altona in 1889 is cited as being the first musical stamp. You can see it in this link:

When I saw cjd's post, I thought "those are very unattractive arms for a woman" Now I realize the arms are those of Tony Curtis.

You could make a music topical collection!

Hi timbres667

Actually many years ago I did start a collection of classical
composers but I didn't get too far.

Chopin and Liszt
Day of Stamp; Polish-Hungarian Friendship

Poland 1927 Chopin

Poland 5th Intl. Competition of Chopin's Music

I thought for sure someone would have included these by now.

The standard of stamps in this thread is unacceptably high,
time to lower the bar.

A lovely "Dune" stamp.
Roll over, Mr. Beethoven.

Rod, that is the most unlikely likeness of the maestro I have ever
seen. He looks like he's on LSD.
Beethoven would roll over in his grave if he saw what they're
doing to his image.
The printers Brothers Rosembaum in Vienna should be ashamed of themselves for wasting paper and ink on this.

These East Germany ones from 1952 don't look a heck of alot
better. Then again it was tough times there in those post war
years.
