This definitive non-denominated stamp from the Czech Republic features timber-frame houses. Z indicates the international rate. I have no idea why the letter Z was chosen. A is used for domestic mail, and E for European destinations.

A,E or Z, A for national ,E for Europe and Z for international
ReplyDeleteI wonder if there are any other letters used.
DeleteIt's slightly different in Spain:
ReplyDelete-A for National;
-B for European;
-C for "Rest of the World".
It seems a stamp ready to be coloured with pencils... :)
colouring was my first thought, too!
DeleteIt is a fairly small stamp, so wouldn't take too long to color in.
DeleteI suppose one could say it travels from A to Z. The letter certainly fits rather nicely with the architectural design.
ReplyDeleteI like that expression to explain the letters.
DeleteI guess that these impressive houses are made of wood.
ReplyDeleteYes, they are timber framed.
