Radiation


Aurora Borealis and Australis

You must click on the image for the broadband image. This is one of the rare U.S. stamps that come out that are great(in my eyes).
Greta Garbo was the last really good one.
This is an Omnibus release. Even better, I the countries escape my mind at the moment. At least half a dozen if my memory serves me correctly.
I'll no doubt be changing todays post with the list of countries.

Sprite


Just your typical water sprite. Famous artwork. Famous engraver.

After posting this, I noticed the odd perf cuts on top. It almost looks like a stamp is beneath. Oddest thing. I'm not soaking this one.

Torch and Rings


Perusing Stan's blog, http://www.stanlickstampexchange.blogspot.com/ , who commented yesterday, I saw mention of Olympic material. By coincidence moments later I spotted this.

International response

I've heard of these before, but never seen one until this weekend at the USPS stand at the stamps show.

Nice looking item I think. Are these all identicle no matter which country you buy them in? I wonder?
