LA POSTE FRANCE stamps depicting the artworks of Carzou, Degas, Vlaminck, Salines de Chaux Arc et Senans by Enlightenment architect Claude-Nicolas Ledoux and Marianne (symbol of Liberty in France) was received from a fellow philatelist in France.
Another envelope from a fellow collector include commemorative stamps of Sully Prudhomme (first Nobel Prize winner in literature), Chateau de Versailles and 50th Anniversary of the Space Age (showing Sputnik, an Apollo spacecraft, the remote sensing satellite SPOT,
Ariane V carrying an ATV cargo freighter, and a Soyuz rocket carrying
the French Corot satellite).
The
Marc Chagall stamp (below, far right) is especially nice, as are any of the
stamps he had a hand in designing or reproducing from his artwork.
