The Peace Bridge crosses the Niagara between Canada and the US. I just discovered that there is an organization on the Canadian side called The Fort Erie Multicultural Centre which assists newcomers and refugees from their first steps in Canada until their long-term integration into local communities. (In both pictures the US is on the right.)   (The engraver specialists will be able to tell you who did the beautiful stamp.) |

I admire the simplicity and clarity of this Australian Peace Dove.  (Hi Rod, Your blue Turkish Dove is also one of those simple, clear designs. K.) |

Your pretty Columbian Dove is also wearing a lovely dress, quite a unique design. Offered with courtesy and respect, "Colombian Dove"  I have been upbraided by "Jerry" on SCF oft times, for this slip up. Nice spotting on the Colombian Dress ! I didn't see that myself.

The Czechoslovakian sheet for the Year of Peace is the biggest one I know of, measuring 17.5 X 11 cm. The Dove is also wearing many national colors.   (Hi Rod, Thanks for the reminder, and for Picasso himself! K.) |
