Personalized stamps..

 

India Post should continue My Stamp project…

India Post issued 17 different sheetlets with 29 new different stamps during INDIPEX 2011 for MY Stamp series… These stamps are different  from those issued earlier. Some of them are new and all the stamps have been printed with inscription INDIPEX 2011 . These personalized stamps are in great demand and I am receiving mail from philatelists of different places who could not get these stamps and wish to get them. India Post may continue this project by receiving  orders on line. The photos could be sent by email as they had received earlier. 

Many philatelists could not attend the exhibition and were deprived of these sheetlets. Since all these stamps are new  and postally valid  and must get a place in catalogue. All the stamps have been listed on website of Stamps of India . All 17 sheetlets could be viewed at Se-tenant stamps of India Blog. Click following links to view all these stamps and sheetlets.
