I like this one from Austria because even though one
can't see the blast furnace you can see the red hot heat
from the flames reflecting on the worker's arms.

Russ's furnaceman,
but printed by a different method.
Photolithography.

It involves "siderography" transferring the original hardened
die to the printing plate.

If the siderographer rolls a light run, and attempts
to "re roll" another deeper impression, and it mis aligns
this is called a "re-entry" on a stamp image.

Your stamp image shown here as "A" and "B" area

The classic "re entry" of the Australian Catalogue

(On a Western Australian centenary stamp,
Western Australia is where most Victorians dream
of holidaying in the warm beautiful climate)

Example without re entry

If I had time to hunt down all of the examples shown here, I think I'd make a display to hang in my office. Beautiful stamps!

BTW: I am not casting aspersions.


Rod,

Do you mean to say you're throwing away your aspersions?

I am certainly not a green thumb,
every plant I have tried has ended up withering,
I prefer to buy my aspersions from the florist.
