Nederland--The Eyes, a most deserving first stamp post

  So here is my first stamp blog post.....a good place to start, and of course, after an hour or so of research, I cannot tell you much about this stamp.  It is from the Netherlands and does show a red stamp indicating 1945-1975.  The visual is astounding....the barbed wire and the hungry, lonely, desperate eye.  I did find the image on a dutch web site that looks like an photo clearinghouse, and also on ETSY as a stamp necklace--hello Amy!

So days later, I am sitting here at the working station (ie the dining room table) with Gail, and while I am trying to figure out this camera, Gail is researching further the stamp above.  Seemingly it is a commemerative..30 years. hence the '45-'75 stamp in red. Something happened back early 40's in the Netherlands...there was a Nazi invasion, many prisoners, many deaths....my guess is this stamp was made in 75 to remember that period in the country's history.

PS.  frustrating to suck so much a quality digital photography.
