Fantastic new MOON USA postage stamp,
Mail art from the USA is beginning to arrive with this "circle" stamp, yay!
Perhaps it is postmarked Feb.29, but hard to tell for sure:
Finnbadger did a Fabulous job of creating a Greek envelope
with BLUE and white edges
For years, mail art from Greece came in the familiar blue 'n white
envelopes with "air mail" "par avion" in the lower corner: ΑΕΡΟΠΟΡΙΚΩΣ.
and they were ideally light weight, so the mail card(s) could be heavy and
generously stuffed inside and still not pass 20 gr!
Ah, but the company , I was told by a few shops, closed
and there were no longer these envelopes available on the market.
Aha! Until last week, when I was in the old market area of Thess,
there is an old office supply shop there, and the nice lady had a
whole BOX full of them:
Soooooooooooooooo, watch for mail art from Greece,in BLUE and white:-)
Thanks, Philip, for creating the Greek envie!
Comment
We Americans are finally thinking "outside the box" with our postage.
