Rod, even the folks at the auction house don't know how to spell the word stationery!




It pains me to admit, I once asked on a stamp forum about an Italian "Postage Due"
when all it was was the currency...."Due Lira"

Learning, like getting old, is lots of fun.

Thank you for the link, Rod! It looks that collection on the auction was 34 pieces, not punctured, fine preserved... with possibly some rare examples... far away from this what I have.

Btw. one link for you... I am not sure why is this example so scarce and expensive, but looks that the earliest Bavarian postal cards give a gigant extra value if they are multifranked.

about spelling stationary/stationery... my opinion was that the both ways of spelling are correct... just as color/colour... color is spelling in American English, and colour in "English" "English"...

What beautiful script handwriting, best I have seen.

That's how I was taught at school, with ink and nib, heavy on the downstroke, light on the up.
