U.n. Vienna Save The Forrests

As I mentioned in the Topical Forum, I collect United Nations.

Here's Scott #81a -- more of a Fall scene than a Spring scene, but I can't wait that long to post them.

Very Nice!

If you ever have the opportunity to get the full sheet of these from all 3 issuing offices at anything close to face value, you should go for it. Even thought the pairs are identical, the sheets were a quick sellout because of the continuous horizontal design, and most of the subscribers only got the pairs. The full sheets have a significantly higher premium, and are one of the few UN items from the 1980s that have a significant premium.

It's a really pretty stamp! Congratulations!

Thanks for the tip, KHJ.

I have the se-tenants for two of the three issues (NY, Geneva, & Vienna), but without going to my album, I don't remember which I lack. I think I have Geneva and Vienna, but not New York.

But I don't have a full sheet from either of them.

Thanks, Warrehouse:

Even though I mounted this and scanned it, I just now noticed the "chad" stuck near the 4th perf from the right side. I guess sometimes we don't look at our own stamps

I think a hanging chad means you can't use the pair in a collection, or you've been voted in as president or something.

Funny, swabbie!
