Need Your Help Again In Identifying 2 Vignettes

Hello!

The first one looks like a vignette that was separated from its stamp from the comunist countries - East Europe '60, '70, '80...

The second looks like a vignette from UK.. The cancellation looks like that also..


Thankl you!

Sobo, the first one is Swiss. It is not a stamp but was part of a strip of two stamps commemorating the Gotthard tunnel. The vignette above was printed in between two stamps
The second one is Irish - that is all I know

The second one is the Belfast City Hall. I recognized the building, having been there, but it also says "Belfast City Hall" right there on the card.

thank you! :)

So, these are not stamps, but labels that look like stamps, and yet got cancelled as postage anyway? It would be interesting to see them on cover, solo use, rather than tied as labels like Xmas seals.

Technically, are they from Ireland, United Kingdom, or Great Britain?

This 'Stormont' label, as shown in the image posted by vayolene, was attached to a county definitive for Northern Ireland. These are Generic Smiler's Sheets sold at a premium over the cost of postage. Sheets were issued for England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland. Northern Ireland remains part of the United Kingdom (Great Britain is the big island). Northern Ireland country stamps are valid throughout Great Britain and Northern Ireland. They bear the cameo of H.M. Queen Elizabeth identifying them as 'British' stamps.




No.

The label, very likely, would have been attached to the stamp when they were stuck on a cover. As a result, the label was cancelled together with the stamp.
