Sierra Leone Loved Lombard |
But perhaps the strangest of these are the Jaqueline Bisset stamps from around the world .....
Senegal Loves Bisset |
Ivory Coast Loved Bisset |
But, Somalia Loved Bisset? |
When was Somalia ever liberal enough to have a picture of Jaqueline Bisset, in a bikini no less, on its stamps? I really must have missed the Muslim spring that was Somalia in the 1960's!
Obviously, they never were liberal .... their stamps were printed elsewhere by a contract company .... but you would have thought that they would make some effort to match the pictures to the culture. This stamp may well have been the most inappropriate or incongruous ever issued .... well so I thought until I saw the "Tom Of Finland Stamps" .....
Homo-Erotic Tom Of Finland Stamps |
That's left me speechless as well !
ReplyDeleteI would think that the last stamp would leave most people speechless.
DeleteDoes kind of surprise one .....l couldn't find out why Finland wanted to issue the set of.. ahem ... stamps.
ReplyDeleteI think I get your point, although your use of certain terms may offend some. Not sure about the film you mention though?
