Stamp of the Day: Butterfly wing
Good morning! Continuing the butterfly theme, todays stamp is a wing from Maculinea arion, Svartflackig blavinge or The Large Blue, and a whole one looks like this.
We usually order the pretty stamps on-line, when they don't have them at the post office. And when you order stamps online in the US, you pay no shipping charges! Isn't that great!?
Why do I always get boring stamps when I buy them? Apparently there are much more interesting ones than the ordinary with royalties on them.

ReplyDeleteThey save the prettier ones for the higher values I think! Bad really.
ReplyDeleteThis one is great.
