Some Cinderellas To View

Here's a few I have had in a stock book and have not looked at for many years,the 1934 green expo is damaged, but still some beauties.The engraving on the ABN copies is stunning under magnification.

Beautiful examples. I hadn't seen all four colors of the '34 before.

Beautiful examples. I can't find it at the moment, but there was a previous post about the 1930 National Philatelic Exhibition in Boston (APS Convention) and displayed a purple variety of the Cinderella for that event. I just found a green example as well:



These were produced by a firm, the McKenzie Engraving Company of Boston.

That lower Americana series and the Tanks of the Allies pair would be nice to see close up if possible. They look great from far away. Curious how many are in the Tanks series, if you know?

Here are the missing three from the Eaton's Fine letter Papers set.







The following two blocks were issued together with their colour counterparts, 'Britain's Royal Navy' in se-tenant sheets of 16. Produced by Polystamps.

If you want to see the other half of the sheets, just holler. Might be fun, there is an HMS Rodney in there !





wt...The Boston labels were also produced in Blue and Red. Can't find the stamps or the scan at the mo, but they are here !

Holler, Holler!
(chant) We want Rodney!

( I helped sink the Bismark)

Another of the Rodney Family...

At long last, here is Rodney....the HMS variety !





One could say Rodney is less Renown on his stamp !

Londonbus1....apologizes for the late arrival !

Thanks Lb,
she was a beautiful ship,
although I would not have liked to be down the boiler room.

Did you spy the Israel red cross Cinderella sheet
on the "Phossick" thread?

Nice, nice, nice, and I want them all........

Fred,
Very nice selection of cindy's. I always enjoy that era of material

LB1, those Eaton's engraved issues are fantastic , they should have been made into "real" stamps. Engraved aerial views are so nice!

I've recently come across the 'Royal Navy' labels. My Father served on the Renown during the war and I'd love to know more - does anyone know any more about them - why were they printed for example?
