Horror 2009

Nice to exchange some stamps with friends. The mailman/woman is not -always- my friend.

The overs I receive from a friend of Denmark have mostly a nice cancellation. He used an overlay on the stamps with an example how to cancel the stamps. Did show it a long time ago I think. Now I think the same was on this cover. You see on the right a small part of the cancellation and I suppose the rest was on the overlay. Its a long way, Denmark-The Netherlands and the overlay went gone. Maybe in the transportation or the mailman/woman did removed it, saw the stamps did not have a cancellation and made a mistake by putting a cross on stamps at the cover. Only a small line under on the stamp is allowed. Maybe because we dont have a mailman but only deliverymen(cheaper).

Postzegels ruilen is een leuke bezigheid. De TNT promoot het dezer dagen behoorlijk, jammer dat de postbodes (postbezorgers) geen goeie opleiding krijgen. Deze brief heeft twee ongestempelde Deense postzegels. Het stempel staat waarschijnlijk op het briefje wat erop zat om te laten zien hoe er gestempeld moet worden. Zit wel meer op post uit Denemarken. Nu zijn de zegels wel ontwaard door de berzoger (?) Dat er een klein streepje aan de onderkant van het zegel moet is vast niet in de les doorgekomen. Grote kruizen dat is het nu. Een zegel is ook beschadigd of moet ik zeggen extra beschadigd? Gelukkig waren de zegels in de enveloppe wel mooi van kwaliteit.

Chicken cinderella

Just a nice chicken cinderella from Danmark. If you have any, please let me know.

Danish Cinderella

Nice example of a cinderella. Danish with a chicken on it. Alfred Jacobsens, Danske Billedböger it says, nr 251. Google does not give more information. The smoking cock is writing ABC with smoke. Maybe a cigaretbrand? Nice gift for my birthday,(May) show you more in the next day's.

Posterstamp from Danmark

Just hard to find the way to my blog. After all those weeks in France is is strange to have a computer and television in your home. Did not miss it at all. Nice cinderella from Danmark. Don't have it in my collection.

Modern Stamping

Some nice stamps from Denmark. You see it more and more, stamps from a machine. Do you need one stamp, no person can help you, but therefore we have machines now. Like these stamps more than those we have here in The Netherlands. BTW read an article that our TNT Managers think it's better that we have Holland on our stamps in stead of The Netherlands....better for the sales.....Do you agree with this?

Danish stamps

I also collect Danish used stamps. Do have a lot, only recent stamps (used) are hard to find. Where do I hear that before. This is a nice stamp of a serie of 4 stamps. Don't have an idea what these stamps are about, exept they are cartoons.. Of course I can google that but maybe you can tell me/us about these .
