USA 1997
Feeling at least 38% more spoopy than anticipated. Pls enjoy these movie monster stamps. Unfortunately I don't have the Bela Lugosi Dracula one - many goth tears will surely flow.

Sweden, 1983.
Commemorating Swedish winners of the Nobel Prize for Chemistry. (Couldn't find any peace prize ones in my collection in the time I had)
Maybe you'd have more luck in another category Donnie? I guess you have just as much chance of winning the Chemistry one

USA 1967
I found myself wondering what Georgie C would make of the recent address to the Generals?

UK, 1996. Whooper swan
Or is it whopper, Nigel*?
For the non Brits, our pound-shop Oswald Mosely who pushes the lie that Romanian immigrants are eating our swans - failing to note that swans are mostly migratory.

Austria, 1920.
I do love an over-print.
This one was for the Carinthia referendum held to decide if the area should join the fledgling Yugoslavia or remain as part of Austria. Despite 70% of the population speaking Slovene 59% voted to stay in Austria. Still Austria now.

Penrhyn, Northern Cook islands, 1982
Bit late with stamp of the week but became inspired today noticing several posts mentioning the queen of hearts on the 28th anniversary of her death on the 31st. I'd assumed it was a rounder number given the number of posts but hey.

Australia 1995 $2.50
I've spent the last week and a bit knee deep in Dwarf Fortress. It is one of the most ridiculous games of all time. I love the gem mining and the random crap the game throws at you. I recently had a wereskink infestation. 'fun' ensued obvs.

Libya 1989 2 of a strip of 5
Gaddafi era stamps really are delightfully batshit.
(On a train to Edinburgh for the weekend so I had to find a stamp I'd already photographed)
Will also post a screen grab of the full strip

It's been a cat sort of week even though I was out with Pa Orange's dog harem on Weds.
I have this beautiful FDC but I just noticed this stamp has a cat near some lilies which is a big nope as lily pollen can cause kidney failure in cats. Nice drawing and cancel though

Tonga, 1942
I have eschewed politics for another week and gone with this pair of stamps from Tonga because I love how visible the watermarks are on the reverse. It means I can tell this is the 1942-9 version not the 1897-1934 version.

Japan 2000, 80 yen
Politically the year continues to be a dumpster fire. So this week I've been soaking Japanese stamps off paper as a form of brain relaxation. There are a fair few Dick Bruna stamps (but no Miffy which is boo as she's 70 this year)

As I finally have one please enjoy my penny black (with red Maltese Cross cancel*)
I got this via @philatelovely who runs occasional raffles for lovely stamps and also sell stuff at very reasonable prices. It's a very nice stamp.
* That's a postmark to normal people

The Syracuse coin stamp was the Italian equivalent of our Machin (queen's head) stamp, used for years with different colours, values and sizes but the overall same design.
It was Italian cheese last night at homage2fromage. 8 wonderful cheeses. Burp.

Bohemia and Moravia, 1940, 50h
This week I have mostly been romping across the countryside of medieval Bohemia whilst playing Kingdom Come: Deliverance. I've been having a great time and have stealth-learned some history whilst I've been at it. Yay! Double win!

Qatar, 1 Dirham, 1969
Wonder if this will be refitted as Donnie's new yacht? Actually he doesn't seem the yacht-y type. Maybe he fears the orcas?

2 stamps! A blue 1867 5c from the Papal State and a 6L Vatican City from 1949. Personally I like Vatican stamps, they're well designed and printed if a little dry.
I'm glad to hear the new pope is a protégé of pope Francis rather than another jump towards the authoritarian

Every time I see a Cayman Islands stamp my thoughts eventually ends up thinking about how the EU legislation that would have made it harder to hide cash offshore eventually lead to Br**it. Not any of the things they pretended it was about. Just greed and tax avoidance.
