Flipped vignettes are definitely some of the most popular, if rare, issues. Nothing quite like an upside down framed picture although some of the perf mis-registrations are quite interesting as well.albumfillinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13393321322958144500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6190925726844102948.post-60369610018947706932019-01-23T08:25:08.241-08:002019-01-23T08:25:08.241-08:00Tom - Indeed.

Of note regarding the Russia Sc 1860 example you spotlight: the stamp commemorates "the oldest resident of the Azerbaijan SSR, 148 year-old collective farm worker Makhmud Eyvazov".
