Sunday Stamps | Machin Colours

I am fascinated by how many colours these Machin stamps were issued in. This is just a samall sample of my Machins. I wonder if someone has a collection with ALL the varieties, which seems impossible to me...







Go to Sunday Stamps to see more Colours!

  1. I have tried to collect as many colours as I could find, but I kept forgetting which ones I already had and it was getting too expensive (I don't get enough mail from the UK to get the 'free' ones)

    1. I have tried to organise my collection (this is a sample), but there are a few which I have doubts about. I guess I need to dedicate more time to this matter.

  2. I love looking at them - they look like colour swatches/palettes. I don't have many of them, too.

  3. I have a few too - from my Postcrossing days. Good selection here.

  5. Over 3,000? Wow. I can't even imagine! I like that purple in the third group down best. Nice bright purple.

  6. So many variations and issues to accumulate, a mammoth endeavor. Maybe the Royal Philatelic Collection will be the most complete as they get copies of all the stamps. The Queen was an active stamp collector.

    1. I suppose the Queen owned all the Machin stamps :)
      I wonder what she thought about.

    2. The passing of the years and that she was never going to let them update the portrait:)
