In my view, this is not a cinderella, but a souvenir card with a regular stamp. Nothing to do with the subject of this thread. |

Card for the 1st Mediterranean Stamp Show, held in Barcelona on December 1990. It commemorates the 500 years of Columbus America trip; so, it shows Santa Maria ship. Design: Sebastià Sabaté.  |

Cursus,
Are they stamp reproductions or designs for the show only ?
Very nice sheet and the show logo is brilliant.

Thank you very much for your nice words Mike. Stamps, are actually real ones reproductions. They're 1943 Barcelona city council surtax stamps (Edifil Barcelona, # 49 & 50). Designed and printed in our city.  As for the logo, it was the work of my late friend Sebastià Sabaté (also from Barcelona and deceased four years ago). Price winning Olympic stamps collector and printer, he was also the father of the Olymphilex'92 and Barcelona'98 stamp shows logos, shown earlier in this thread, as well as postmarks and many other philatelic and postal items. He's much missed. |

Just took delivery on a little packet of cinderellas. Included these two Philatelic Expo labels. Any one know the year this one would have come out? Trans-Mississippi Philatelic Exhibition and Convention  This one is a little more obvious. Seapex, New Bedford Mass. 1981  |

Nice Cindys jamesw !  The Seapex label was issued in a sheetlet of 8 with inscriptions all round. It was the 18th annual Exhibition. Similar labels in larger sheetlets and in different colours were issued for the 1982 and 1983 Exhibitions. Lovely stuff ! Londonbus1 |

WOW!  I was away for quite sometimes due to unforeseen circumstances, & I got back to see some Marvelous, Fabulous & Eye Catching materials posted here!  Guys, you have me "re-charged" and am back!  I believe that I have missed lots of finds & scarce Philatelic Cinderellas during my absence?!  Cheers |
