Which makes me realise I urgently need a few stockbooks for amongst others my greek stamps.
Anyway, since the new greek Europa stamps were issued recently, I thought it a good idea to give it a start with that series.
When I was a kid I didn't like this series very much, the design was not very fancy, the colours were not very attractive.
Not the most attractive stamps in my humble opinion |
But by getting in contact with worldwide swappers and rediscovering this series I started to like this (Europa) series more and more and nowadays I try to get yearly the maximum of stamps postally used on a cover.
I mostly keep the covers as such, sometimes I soak off the stamps and add them to the collection (and I always scan the cover in question).
You can follow my collection of Europa Covers here.
But for my collection of greek Europa/CEPT stamps I only will take in account those which were postally used and soaked from a cover.
So what do we have?
1st row
Europa CEPT 1972 "Communication" : Hellas n° 1222
Europa CEPT 1974 "Works of Art- sculpture" : Hellas n°1283 & n° 1282
2nd row :
Europa CEPT 1981 "Traditional dances" : Hellas n° 1561
Europa CEPT 2017 "Castles" : Hellas n° 2976 (Castle of Palamidi)
3rd row
Europa CEPT 2013 "The Postman Van" : Hellas n° 2752 & n° 2753
That issue of 1974 is very nice by the way, just love these sculptures!
So that gives the mighty number of 7 stamps, well almost nothing of course.
I know where I can start looking for...
Have a nice weekend.
