Adanaland releases miniature sheet celebrating Festival of Ornament

When my daughter and I went to check our post office box last week, there were a couple of pieces of “stamp mail,” one of which came from Adanaland’s Alan B. Alan sent along his latest philatelic creation, a miniature sheet of nine stamps celebrating the Adanaland Festival of Ornament.

Alan writes that he acquired a box of letterpress type ornaments some time back and decided they would be useful for creating stamps for a fictitious event.

As you can see, although the same symbols are used repeatedly, each stamp in the sheet is unique. It’s an interesting arrangement, and an interesting end product!
