R is for Round

I have been exchanging mail and mail art with Eva for quite a while now, and for the first time I received this round Moroccan stamp.





It celebrates the Week of Solidarity, and is a definitive stamp of sorts in that it is frequently re-issued. It arrived on this lovely stylized postcard, which has its own round yellow sun. the colors look much better in person.

  1. 'Round', great finding!

    I love this stamp, love the not-so-round-postmark and just now I see the connection with the sun! (I didn't think of until now, even being a lucky receiver of this stamp, too..)

  2. Really haven't I sent this stamp to you before? I've been sending it since the first time I came to Morocco (even before I came to live here!).

    So, I'm glad this arrived!

    1. It is the first one I received from you - I suppose it is possible one was lost. I was surprised that one didn't arrive on a TFP envelope :)

    2. Actually, I checked the TFP envelopes before sending, because in my mind I had sent this stamp to you too many times!

      We won't never know if at least one was lost... So good this one arrived!
