Usually, I choose stamps I have got on letters or postcards in order to take part in Sunday Stamps. But today the theme is the letter P, and I thought I could show this envelope I sent to Phillip (the USA).
The first
P belongs to a series of 2014 called
Spanish Brand. It included several stamps spelling the word
EspaƱa ('Spain'), and dedicated to different topics. The
P is for
Patrimonio ('Heritage') and features the
Court of the Lions in the
Alhambra, a UNESCO WHS.
The second
P on the envelope
belongs to a series featuring the Spanish provinces. I had already shown some of them (here, here, here
...)
I used a third stamp, also from 2020, featuring the province of Lleida:
I love those provinces stamps, keep them coming:)

DeleteI have uploaded almost all that I have got. But I hope I will complete the collection (only 3 provinces left, still to be issued).
This is such a great idea - I love this envelope. The province stamps are very interesting, and perfect for this kind of mail art :)
ReplyDeleteMy picture isn't very good, but I'm glad you liked it. It was easy with your name!
DeleteI also love those provinces stamps (also did not realize there were so many provinces!!)
ReplyDeleteVery creative way of spelling out Phillip :)
50 provinces!
DeleteI hope one day to visit the Alhambra...
ReplyDeleteIt's worth visiting, sure.
DeleteThese make me realise that I know almost nothing about the Spanish provinces/
ReplyDeleteI think I have visited all the provinces, but some are rather unknown even to me.
DeleteAs much as I love nicely drawn images on stamps, I also fall for beautiful pictures as is the case with the provinces-stamps...the big letters in front make them real fun!
ReplyDeleteThe only problem is that these stamps are too small to appreciate all the details.
