Lovely, Heleen. I always thought that Royal Mail set of postbox stamps was fantastic. And of course I love the horse stamps.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenOh my word, every week I am amazed at your selections of stamps!!!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThe red post boxes are always a delight to see.
I also like the cross stitch stamps :)
But, there is something about that fancy tail on the N of the Nederland post box stamp that makes me smile. It is reminiscent of the really old stamps.
We all love a postbox and the queen of hearts would get me donating.
