Inverted background

The yellow background is inverted on this stamp. A special printing of these occured after the discovery of inverted backgrounds on the originals. This is the first day of re-issue.

Gorilla

This isn't the first gorilla to appear on a Ugandan stamp.

A co-worker came upon this and was kind enough to save the stamp for me. Thanks Traci!!!

Close call on the tear there. It's always best to use scissors. Better yet, whole covers are more then welcome.

I'm curious as to the name of the city on the torn circular. Could it be Rocta? Bocta? I need a map.

Don't hesitate to mail me a letter if you don't see one posted from your country on here.

I'm always in need of fresh recent material to display.

My "Quest" label hasn't been tagged onto all my past posts. For instance, I have covers from Netherlands, but I need to go back and tag the post I wrote before the label system started with the *New, supposedly better version of blogger that is now run by Google.

Buddha like figures(just not heavy)

Scott#939-948 Sculptures from Tay Phuong Pagoda.

Lets say "Buddha"

A complete set I might add. CTO, this set came in a mixture of Vietnam that I purchased from Mystic Stamp Co. One of their bargain deals they advertise trying to coax you into the approval offers they then mail to you.

It'd be cool if they sent me the block plate of inverted Jenny's for approval. I'd probably return them, but I'd sure get some personal scans and photos with them!!
