Very glad this week's Sunday Stamps is Anything You Wish as work this week has been absolutely manic and has taken away all of my creative thought. These stamps are a block of 6 green/brown 2d Southern Rhodesia stamps from 1943 commemorating 50 years of the province of Matabeleland. One of Matabeleand's claim to fame is that it was the birthplace of scouting, where Robert Baden-Powell met Frederick Russell Burnham.

These are stunning...the border color makes them really stand out!
ReplyDeleteCountries whose names have been swallowed up. Fine stamps.
ReplyDeleteI echo Bob's thoughts. A fine example from a lost land.
ReplyDeleteI like the old-fashioned kind of stamps and those are nice colors.
