Hi Rod. Here's an El Salvador. Can't be worth much but it's the only one I've ever seen. I don't even recall who gave me the jpg but thank you very much whoever you are.  |

Great examples everybody! Love 'em.
REQUEST:
These can be "boring" to a degree when posted en masse HOW ABOUT: ? Anybody posting a Registration label, has to offer a short 1 liner on where the Reg Label is from????
Example: El Salvador : San Salvador (the capital of El Salvador)
Austria : Gollersdorf: (Lower Austria, arms consist of a Grape Vine)

This from a 1926 KGV cover from Nigeria.  This is from a area and period of not-so-disinterested colonization of Africa. Today there is a battle going on in Nigeria regarding the oil fields (many near Lagos) as Nigerians attempt to reclaim (some lawfully, some not) their patrimony. |

All these are from the mid-1970s.  Driebergen-Rijsenburg is a town in Utrecht Province, in central Netherlands.  Marandellas, changed back to the original name of Marondera in 1982, is a town 72k east of Harare (formerly Salisbury), Zimbabwe (formerly Rhodesia).  Bombay, now Mumbai, a city of 13 million people, is the administrative capital of Maharashtra state, and lies in the East of India on the Arabian Sea. |

OK, this is a bit of a puzzle for me...  This label has been stuck over another one, as can be seen in the scan. I've got a lot to learn about covers, so maybe someone could explain why this might have been done? Here is the entire cover if that helps..  |

Tuvalu never used labels, just handstamps. Here are strikes of the first ones inscribed "Tuvalu", put in use January 1, 1976. All nine island post offices.  |
