Well, I found 6 old Puffin stamps from 'Lundy Island'.
I posted about them in the World forum, but it seems
they are at best a 'Local' or even a 'Cinderella'...
So I mention them here.

They are all 6 different, mint, and hinged to a thin
piece of paper made into a folder. They appear to be
at least from the 1950s. Dad would have collected them
as a child. The paper is thin and pretty much turning
to dust if disturbed. The stamps are very healthy though.

I also found a sheet of 'stamps' that start with the #1
and a portrait of Washington, then number each president
through #35, which was JFK. Another year appropriate set
for Dad to collect when younger.

Then there is a single stamp. It appears mostly pink, has
a portrait of Washington, if memory serves, and has a
slogan for the Democrat party... Again, appears to be a
presidential campain stamp for an unnamed democrat in
the 50s... Maybe early 60s? I assume this would have
been affixed to mail as a political promotion???
