Not here Russ.
lovely labels, I have similar era, but political labels from RSA.

Need I suggest your scanner is on its last legs? :(

Hey, is that Doris day on the first stamp?

Those are all nice stamps, haven't seen them before. Thanks for posting.

Oh yes, I see images like these every day as I look in the mirror, always looking my best, smiling angelically, and surrounded by happy, well-behaved, adoring children. Aren't all we mothers the same??

Still nice labels and I like the ones that are roulette, they make a difference ususally giving a smoother appearance.

Rod, I'm getting ready to replace it 80,000 scans and already worn out.

Apparently only the whites celebrated Mothers Day in good old South Africa

Nice labels though

My Epson Perfection did exactly the same thing Russ,
at around 100,000 scans IIRC
I thought it may be the tractor feed and messed around with it for weeks,
It ended up in landfill I think.
When we moved to Thailand, we left amongst other things 3 TV's
to charity, because of govt regulations with electrical
gear, the charities would not accept, and they also went to landfill.
I asked for a plastics bin, and was refused, in it went with
everything else. :(

i love my mother. Very nice stamps on mother's day
