Norway: Essays: 1913 Akershus Castle and Geiranger Waterfalls  
All items are available for viewing on approval. I have a constantly changing stock of Norwegian and all Scandinavian essays, proofs, reprints, and test stamps. Most of such items sell before they get to the website or price lists. What are you seeking?
On May 5, 1913, the Kristiania Philatelic Club "issued" proposals for two well-designed 5 øre stamps: Akershus Castle and the Geiranger Waterfalls. Engraved by W. Lindgren and printed by the firm of Emil Moestue the submitted printed essays were actually lithographed. Each design exists in red, blue, and green; perforated and imperforate (scarcer). Both perforated and imperforate stamps are found gummed and ungummed (they were seemingly "issued" both ways); gummed is scarcer. Prints and mirror prints also exist in black (very scarce). Also also exist with "essay postmarks" to show how they would look canceled (scarce).
