Easter-Pasen

Did find this FDC with a nice chickencancellation. Also springflowers and easter eggs.

Thanks to Leo for this nice cover. All readers a very nice Easter.  Fijne Paasdagen aan iedereen toegwenst.

Rooster Year of the, South Africa

Today a very nice FDC from South Africa with a minisheet from 2005. The year of the Rooster, a nice topic for postadministrations to make -more- money from you and me. I have to say that you can spend as much as you like or can for your hobby. This cover came from a clubmember who did visit South Africa last year. Nice they bougt such things for me when on holiday's. Think its a very nice design of a cock. The cancellation is Bronkhorstspruit, its no chickenname but one of a place in North South-Africa. It has about 27000 inhabitants and was founded in 1858 als Kalkoenkransriver. (Kalkoen=turkey)  Also poultry, but I think thats just accidental.

Mail from Finland

This cover I received last week, thanks to Leo.  A lot of stamps inside from my topics, also a nice cover from Sweden which has a chickencancellation ( Glad Päsk) on an 12 kronen Europa  stamp of 2011.

Will keep the cover in my chickencollection. Also some "Forever Stampexchangers inside, so again a lot of "work". Keep that for the winter and now we still have summer overhere. 

FDC with chickencancellation

Nice surprice last week. A nice FDC from Finland with Easter flowers. Also a nice cancellation with a little chicken on it. Thanks to Leo for this nice item...

FDC New Hebrides

Very nice FDC with a nice rooster, a Frence one. Its from the New Hebrides and the stamps were issued on June 2nd 1978, because the Queen of England, Elizabeth II was 25 years in command. What the French cock has to do with that cellebration I really don't know. There is also a German horse on a stamp. Both animals are looking to teh Queen.  ??? for me.  Show also the cancellation on these stamps in detail.

Thanks to Laura with a trade, these for a Dutch FDC.

Chicken cancellation on stamps

 

Deze mooie Canadese zegels zaten op de enveloppe waarin een andere enveloppe zat met een leuke  kippen afstempeling. Ik vind deze definitieve zegels van Canada, de hogere waarden vanaf $ 1,00 geweldig mooi. Kunnen wij hier nog wat van leren.....

De andere enveloppe staat hieronder afgebeeld, althans het filatelistische gedeelte. Jim bedankt hiervoor.

Think all can read this with a translater. If you also need the text in English, let me know...
