Women on Stamps | Half

Besides the stamps dedicates to couples of women, sometimes only half of the stamp is dedicated to a woman. For instance:

The famous Broadway stars Alfred Lunt (1892-1977) and Lynn Fontanne (1887-1983) were They were married for 55 years and were inseparable both on and off the stage. The USPS honoured them on this stamp, issued on 2 March 1999.

Every year the Dutch Post issues a set of stamps under the title of Grenzeloos ('Border Free'), dedicated to celebrate the ties between the Netherlands and other country. In 2012, the set was dedicated to Indonesia. One of the three sets issued (see here all the stamps) included this stamp dedicated to the singer Anneke Grönloh, that appears behind (but in action, as Heleen has noticed)  the rock artist Andy Tielman (1936-2011). 

On 10 October, Cambodia issued a set of four stamps dedicated to the Traditional Khamer Dance. In every stamp, a woman and a man appear.

At first sight, I thought that this stamp was older. But it dates only from 2005. It appeared on 30 June as part of  The Art of Disney: Celebration series. Snow White and Dopey were two of the characters chosen. You can see here the rest of the stamps.

For the new edition of Sunday Stamps-II A to Z, I have decided to show some of the stamps I have got on letters and postcards, related to one topic: women. This is the post for the letter H.

More women on stamps.

#AtoZChallenge | Z is for Zebra & Zarah

I guess that some people have chosen this word for the latest day of the #AtoZChallenge... but still I wanted to upload this nice zebra that Bryon (the USA) sent! (You knew already its cousin the quail, don't you?)

----------------------------------------------------------------

This postcard shows Buddhist Monks passing the Royal Palace in Phnom Pen, Cambodia. This is not the first postcard I have got from that country: back in 2009 and 2010 I swapped some postcards with Zarah.

This one was sent by Ana, though. Ana is from Macedonia, currently living in China, and travelling a lot. So you never know where her next postcard is arriving from: Malaysia, Greece... It can be even the house you were born in (That I call a real mail adventure!)

Actually, this postcard was signed by two people: Ana and... Zarah! I did not know that they were friends! Later, they sent me a picture of them together in front of the post office.

Don't you think sometimes that the world is small?
