Sold this kitty over the weekend, and figured I could share it before sending him off to his new owner.

Here's the king looking a little stylized. If anyone has numbers I've not found Persia yet.

They look to be 1898 SC# 106 107 and 110. But the Scott's picture isn't very clear. Listed under Iran.
I think the violet handstamp is a control mark from 1899.

GB has an attractive set out at the moment of WWF animal stamps showing endangered species. Includes 3 big cats - assuming a lynx counts as "big"?!

I would say a Lynx is "big", simply because it isn't a domestic cat. Perhaps a peek at a dictionary is in order?
