Our theme this week is pets, which I think will be a favorite of my contributors. I thought of this theme when I received this stamp recently from Great Britain:
Given its value (22 p) I would guess this stamp was issued some time ago. Hmm, my new scanner does not seem to catch the detail of this stamp. Maybe I am scanning at too low a resolution. Well now I know.
Please join me this week with your stamp of choice, showing a pet.
Theme next week: Geology or landscapes.
Theme week after that: Folk art.

What a coincidence! I bought the Stubbs set of dogs from #my market trader' this week but that is not what I am going to show.
ReplyDeleteThere seems to be a proliferation of Stubbs' dogs! I bought the cards and did choose them to show this week.
ReplyDeleteI don't remember this Stubbs set but what a wonderful painter of animals.
ReplyDeleteIt's nice to see several of this George Stubbs issue today! :)
ReplyDeleteNot my favourite theme at first, but I must say that I'm enjoying the discover of so many stamps about pets in the contributors' blogs!
ReplyDeleteI think the King Charles spaniel is the only one I have seen of that set. Lovely.
ReplyDeleteI am surprised at the number of Dog stamps, Love them.
ReplyDeleteDogs were definitely a favourite for stamp pet illustrators!
ReplyDeleteyay! I made it!
ReplyDeleteI have a bunch of dog stamps too, but went for cats this time :)
