Here's a few more of the charity seals, starting with the 1905 and 1911 general Charity Christmas seals, and then the Thorvaldsen Society seals for 1913 (undated). After this, they are dated.

Thank you, I did notice most of my Iceland / Island were inscribed "Jolin"
So can any members confirm it is a Norwegian Cinderella please?

Looking at the envelope below I would say that Rod's seal is definitely from Norway:

https://en.todocoleccion.net/stamps...obre_el_lote

The seal appears to come in at least 3 different colours, as shown in this collection of unfortunately unidentified old poster seals (see page 2):

https://www.worthpoint.com/worthope...r-1830967239

On the following Christmas seals/Red Cross site under Norway are listed issues (not illustrated) for 1971, 1972,1974 and 1975 with subject Mother & Child with Donkey:
