1976 April 1 souvenir card bearing Scott #22 [1.60 kr Postal Service; Faroe Flag] canceled first day of issue. Copyrighted by "BP Kastrup" and "BAFI Bagsværd". I do not know the proper name of the philatelic issuer. Blue frame and black text on gray-fibered thick, soft paper; 145 x 210 mm. Punched for typical Danish/Faroe 2-ring binder; I do not know if the punching was original, but I suspect that it was issued this way. [As of October 2020, this is the only example that I recall having seen -- and I do not recall seeing any similar cards of this design. I welcome any further information or images of other cards in the series.] |

1994 20 Kr Horses stamp design "Postcard Puzzle". An officially issued postal product consisting of a post card onto which a puzzle is attached (and wrapped in plastic so the pieces will not get lost in the mail). A rather odd type of postal product. Only one other was issued at about the same time, picturing the Sheep Dog stamp design. The puzzles were last listed in the 2000 Daka GF10 catalog. I have known about them since the late 1990s, but this is (in 2012) the first time I have ever actually seen one. The catalog value was nominal -- I doubt the catalog publisher had ever actually seen one either -- but it is a very scarce item. |
