There Is A Fungus Among Us.

Yup

What would you want for some of the Dupes???? I really like those and think they would go good with my Romanians.

Cimarron:

Those are broken sets, I believe that Viet Nam, issues stamps in sets of six, those sets shown are only 5 stamps of the set.

Therefore, they are not for sale , anyway , you are just a tad bit
too late.

The stamps were sent out this morning to someone in Oklahoma.

No lets see, there is you, Gina, Walter, and his wife.

Sorry I highjacked the topic of Fungi, but just couldn't help myself in posting to All Who have had to use a "Seabag" at one time or another.
In the future I'll try not to break the thread, but ya know Old Sailors are not always the sharpest tools in the shed, we get a little rusty from all that salt water don't ya know.!!

Is ok Sneeky I just had to bust some bubbles. It's all good. I enjoy hearing the old stories like that. It reminds me of sitting in the barber Shop on Saturdays and listening to all the old war stories told there.

OK Bobgggg. If they aren't comming to me then I'll just settle for those stamp PJ's of yours......LOL

Bob the 'shrooms arrived today and are enjoying the dark recesses of my collection quite nicely, Thank you very much for them. I think I am going to start working on a mushroom topical collection. I did some looking already to see what I was missing from the sets you sent and I found this site here......http://www.plant.uga.edu/mycology-h...m/stamps.htm .....and found out I have alot to start looking for. Thanks again for helping me get this topical started.

Yes, typical seabags DID grow mold and other fungi, so it wasn't so much of a stretch. Sometimes the contents did too. How 'bout that for for a stamp idea - a mold-covered Corafram (dress shoe) next to a seabag?

Charles.

LOL
There you go Charles that would be a good one for the oddity part of a collection.

Wellp, I got this mushroom stamp on a postcard the other day, and I think this is the thread for it... I think...

You may not collect PNG,
but these may grow on you...

I have an Allman Brothers t-shirt with mushrooms on it... but I don't wear it away from the house!! ;-)

Poisonous fungi,miniature sheet, Romania 1994, designer Anikó Gerendi.
The second is the deadliest (Death Cap), and as for the latine name: Amanita Phalloides - you see a young specimen too, near the bug.
The first one is Satan`s mushroom, and unfortunately sometimes it is
confused by beginners with the tasty Penny Bun (I`d say second tastiest in Europe after Ceaser`s mushroom, as I consider Truffle rather a spice than food)

Cimarron Warrior, if you want the Vietnamese fungi go to Delcampe.net and type in "Vietnam mushrooms" under stamps you get them both mint and used!
