The Commonwealth Games are going on now in Glasgow and I found a couple of stamps with that theme.
In the 1970s, this style of pictogram was popular. I'm not particularly enamoured of these, to be honest
but also a map, a baton and a cute tiger!

Cute tigers are always a winner! ;)
ReplyDeletemost mascots are rather lame looking, but this one was nice. his name was Shera.
Deletethat Commonwealth sheet is wow, just wow!! And I have those Indian stamps on some envelopes, but this is the first time I see them as part of the sheet...and again, WOW!!
ReplyDeleteI'd only seen this mini sheet - and was pleased it was reasonably priced!
DeleteThe '78 stamps are dated aren't they? Love the colors of the Indian stamps. thank you for joining us this week.
ReplyDeleteI agree - the 78 era stamps haven't stood the test of time.
DeleteMy favorites are the Indian stamps.
ReplyDeleteThe Delhi stamps are more realistic but the baton relay takes the prize.
ReplyDeleteVery good and has many improvements exciting new.
