Quote: I believe the bottom line reads something like: "33% discount on fare on Czechoslovak state railways" ......... see Nigel, that's why you are probably driving a 2017 Mercedes, and myself, a 1983 Datsun. Makes entire sense, well done. |

If only!  I drive a 2007 1-Series BMW but I started driving a long time ago with lessons on a Datsun Sunny. The first car I drove regularly was an old Mini Van that my Dad got from a local sheep farm.  |

If you could cover the Cork and Basket Fair, Rod, I'll investigate the steam baths. |

 Less hair than me, and I'd be carrying bindweed, my only garden product. |

I have a small number of labels promoting Czechoslovak independence and the war efforts of its forces and veterans. I'll start with a strip of three of showing a Czechoslovak fighter in the RAF downing an enemy bomber, the British and Czechoslovak flags flying over what I believe is the silhouette of Prague Castle, and the flame of freedom:  There were four Czechoslovak squadrons in the RAF during the war and many other pilots and aircrew in other units. Two of these squadrons fought in the Battle of Britain. |

Quote: This was based on a poster for the exhibition by Karel Vitezslav Masek, a friend and colleague of Alphonse Mucha: Wow! Brilliant Jill ! Thank you very much.......... A lot of iconography going on here, the star on the youth's head, the capital on allegory of Prague? holding a Lily? Just a beautiful piece of artwork.  |
