If I need to be re-directed because this topic may exist already, please someone do so :) but I'm really liking these and hope to see a certain Cocoa stamp posted as well ;)
Here's what I have so far..



She's a little worn, but oh so pretty

Just a small comment, if you can scan your stamps you will get a much better, sharper image without so much border.

Lovely stamps though.

:)

Thank you for the suggestion Perf14 :) When I first started out on here I had to confess I do not yet own a scanner (that works!) so my pictures usually work out for me ok :) One day I will stop buying stamps and buy a scanner! Cheers ~Ash

It never ceases to amaze me what the old engravers could do with a one or two colour stamp. There are some real beauties out there.

Those are pretty samples.

I don't have have access to my scanner at the moment so I'll have to show a few I scanned earlier.
I hope you don't mind and apologies to anyone that has seen them.

here's a few more I've got kicking around.












I think George V on that Bermuda stamp kind of looks like Tim Curry.

Here's a couple more.








Ash, if you're really liking these, I could pull together a package, and we could talk about another trade.
I love all of these, they are beautiful, but they don't fit into my 'collecting agenda'. I didn't realize that when I decided to specialize and focus on only certain areas, how hard it would be once I started acquiring such interesting stuff. Sometimes you have to let your babies go.
Email me if you're interested.
