1975 - Stamp from Israel

psychedelic arbor day stamp from israel 1975 Originally uploaded by Grain Edit.com

I'm playing this game, with Pip and Co.
Type a year into Flickr, then choose a photo from that year to post to your blog.

I'm really taken with this stamp, the colours, the design -I just love it, I do harbour a secret passion for stamps, I can really see why people become such avid collectors. Not only are they a great sign of the times, they are probably the smallest little art works in our lives. I really don't need to start collecting anything else, but I do have two little books full of Aussie stamps from the 60's and 70's, that I just couldn't bare to leave at the Oppy!

This is gorgeous! You gotta love seventies style, espcially on stamps!

I may have to join in the fun.

Gorgeous stamp! If it was poster size it would look lovely on a wall.
