Unclassifiable material generally gets thrown in
the "sort it later" shoebox, this is the "Phossick Box"
(or Pandora's box) when it reaches auction.

As usual, any comments, gossip or info welcomed on any.

The top one is a black and white copy of New Zealand SG MS 1719. Explanation below:

You've got a reprint of this Cinderella. Someone from my stamp club is always trying to flog these off, without much success.

So is this your Phossick Box ?? Or from an auction ?
Never seen the Magen David sheet before. Looks to be around the fifties era and issued for the New Year by the ambulance service. I would say quite early fifties as there would have been some Hebrew if issued later. Strange.

I like the Aerial post items, even the reprints ! I am ususally outbid on them so if 22Crows sees one at the club, I would like one. Just let me know how much.

Not my phossick box Lb
I don't own one.
All my stamps have a "home"
This from an auction.

The Ross Smith Vignettes, come in 2 style of cinderellas/forgeries,
the one I posted is a lower class of copy.
Look for perforated block of 4 Cinders, a close copy.
