I recently was going through some Belgium stamps late one evening and turned off the light. And to my surprise I encountered a glow in the dark stamp. It was a #1589 building stamp. I thought I saw some others in my pile as well. Would the tagging cause the stamp to glow? Or could it be the ink used in the production?

As a child of the 50's and 60's I have always been attracted to
things that glow. Can you show us this stamp?

Interesting post. All the different images that show up under UV. This Belgian stamp glowed with out UV light. I need to get a photo flash and try some more stamps.
