Good thread -- interesting to me. I think I remember posting some U.S. stamps in that other thread. Did I just say, "I think I remember" -- jeez. It's rough getting old  |

@Londonbus1: Maybe RM stands for Republic of Malaysia?
RM = Malaysian Ringitt [currency] This sheet was a genuine error by Malaysian Post. They simply forgot. Many were withdrawn and destroyed. A friend in Malaysia sent me some scarce goodies and this was one of them. Londonbus1....Scarce but not good !  |

Nice simple stamps rod2222 - the overprint really enhances them too. How do you know she is Bosnian? |

Without the overprint, these stamps would be Bosnian newspaper stamps, Scott P1 and P2. With this overprint, they become 1L21 and 1L22. Oh, and Scott says "Bosnian Girl - A1". [Edit: When perforated, these were postage stamps and not newspaper stamps...if these had been perfed, they would be 1L17 and 1L18] |

Thanks Cjd,
we only have gibbons numbers.
It is a pity the lass did not look straight at the camera lens,
as it is, we are left with her lost in some private reflection.

Yeah, I didn't want to say it, but since Bee pointed it out, if you cover up one of her eyes and then the other, she may be a bit cross-eyed...I think she's looking at you with her right eye. |
