After cataloging and hinging over a thousand stamps yesterday. Yes, believe me because a pack and a quarter of hinges are now gone. Maybe my eyes were just to tired or a simple over site but I could not find these five. Could anyone help on these?

1775mac, I may be able to help when I get home from work. However the bottom stamp is a telegraph stamp & I don't have a catalogue for that.

Thanks Mike, I figured a specialized one for the telegraph one. And I think the ones labeled Republic might be a clue.

As a flag collector, I was amazed at how many nice offerings there are from Honduras. Just had a look at some whilst looking through Scott's and there are many,many.

Nice sheets too, and many of those overprints that make in doubly interesting.
If anyone comes across any spares or unwanted Honduras Flag stamps, I would be happy to exchange or buy.

1775mac....Thanks for giving me the 'eye-opener' !!

Londonbus1.....Doesn't see Honduras Flags too often

Londonbus thanks for the help. Must have been tired by the time I got to these.
There are great overprints on these which are nice to look at but sometimes a pain to catalog.

As for Honduras flags here is a nice S.S. one that you may like. Yes there are many on these Latin America ones.

I didn't see that sheet in Scotts ! Hugely attractive.
I have the set, but have never seen the sheet before.

Thanks for showing.

Londonbus1.....So many Flags to collect

I was interested to read that Waterlow and Sons printed the 5 year plan stamp [top left]. Did they print the rest of set too ??
A very attractive stamp and if the rest of the set were like this, would be a very nice album page.

Lovely.

I wonder why they chose Waterlow and Sons?

Many of the Central and South America stamps were contracted out, ie. Waterlow and son, Perkins and Bacon. I am generally a U.S. collector but the older and similar engravings of first issues of other countries started to peak my interests. It is just plain addictive.

Almost forgot, shoot me a email and I will try to put together a pack of Flags for you.
