Sometimes it is just the colors and the artwork that make the stamp


Sometimes it is just about the color and art.  Unfortunately, I cannot put this stamp in that category.  The colors and the art just do not do it for me.    The stamp is from Poland, issued in1983 and commemorates a national traditional headdress.  Somehow only unmarried women and young girls could wear a flower wreath.  Married women had to wear a kerchief.  The  notation of rozbarski on the stamp refers to a district called Rozbark.  I welcome your further research to tell me what that really means.

Now if you are looking for, in my opinion, a pretty stamp.  Look no further.






Lovely blue and browns and gold.......The stamp on the right has always been a favorite of mine for the double shading of pink and blue.  They are two of a set of 6 issued in 1974 in Poland honoring wooden architecture.   Go far enough down the rabbit hole and you'll find there is a stamp for damn near everything.
