Sunday Stamps: Trees

 Good day, and welcome to my blog.  It is a cool and cloudy wintery afternoon in the American Midwest.  It is time for Sunday Stamps. and the theme this week is trees.

I have some stamps I shared back in 2011:

These older stamps from Poland came from a lot I purchased on ebay.  The trees shown are pear (on the left) and cherry (on the right).  Thank you to Google translate to help me translate the Polish!  I certainly didn't recognize the Latin species names.

Our hostess has a wonderful se-tenant set of apricot trees over the 4 seasons.

Sunday Stamps: Writers

 Good day, and welcome to my blog.  It is a cold cloudy day in the American Midwest.

It's time for Sunday Stamps, and the theme is writers or poets.  I have a stamp that will be released on Feb. 6, 2024, of the Canadian-American writer Saul Bellow:

Scenes of Chicago are in the background, a city he is closely associated with.  He won a number of literary prizes, including the Nobel Prize for Literature.  More on Saul Bellow is at the Wikipedia page for him.

Sunday Stamps: Bridges

Good day, and welcome to my blog.  It is a bright cloudless day in the American Midwest - and 3 degrees F!

It's time for Sunday Stamps.  The theme is Bridges.  I am sharing a stamp from 2012, back in my Postcrossing days:

It's almost Chinese New Year, so it's appropriate to share this stamp of a beautiful arched bridge.

I hope your 2024 is going well so far!

Sunday Stamps: Places of worship

 Good day, and welcome to my blog.  It is a cloudy day in the American Midwest, and it is snowing lightly.  It's just enough to cover the grass, nothing major.

This week's theme is places of worship.  Having no stamps in hand, I searched on the internet and found a set of stamps for sale:

This is a set of stamps issued for Berlin, showing the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church in Berlin.  Partially destroyed during an air raid in 1943, it was rebuilt between 1959 and 1963, according to the Wikipedia page. Its nickname is the "hollow tooth".
