Theme this week: Stamps on stamps, stamps celebrating stamp collecting, stamp designers or the postal services in general. Or stamps that show a post box. It's OK to share a stamp that you showed us some time before.
And it's a good thing I added that last sentence because my stamps this week are:
Stamps I shared back in week 3 or 4 or thereabouts! I am posting these instead of what I really wanted.
I have an older stamp from Czechoslovakia that features a stamp on it, but I cannot find my scan of it, or more importantly, my old stamp album that had that stamp in it. And I really wanted to share it this week. I do hope I find my old album.
Oh, and results from my 'poll' about changing the style of the links: results were about evenly divided, so I think I will stick with the simple list.
Theme next week: It will be just after Cinco de Mayo, and close to the anniversaries of the Liberation of Europe by the Allies in 1945. You could share a stamp from Mexico, or one commemorating the end of WWII, or the liberation of a non-European country, or expressing the theme of Liberation in general. Interpret this theme broadly.

Originally I was thinking of doing a post with maximum cards of the stamp collecting stamps from the U.S. and Sweden. That was a joint issue. I was afraid somebody else would post those stamps this week.
I hadn't seen those stamp collecting stamps before, so I am glad you shared them again Viridian!
And I am slightly disappointed you didn't share the joint issue between US and Sweden, postcardy. I love Swedish stamps. Maybe that could be a future theme, Viridian - joint issue stamps?
Lovely stamps and a great theme. My post for the theme is now shared. Happy Sunday Stamps.
I like those USA stamps very much. I don't believe we have issued anything like it. Sometimes these philatelic exhibitions like the one I have shown are so specialised they are daunting to the everyday or hobby collector.
Well worth showing again, I like the pastel shades. Hurray for stamps.
I like this week's themed stamps on your blog. I don't have any that features stamps or philately so it is nice to see other countries released them.
Since I haven't been around since week 3, thanks for reposting!
