Cover no. 12 from France






A really interesting cover received on Friday from the region of Ile de France with a pretty stamp issued on 29 May 2008. The stamp is supposed to be sent to inform of the birth of a baby, and, after scratching part of its surface, it is revealed if it is a boy or a girl... Here I show the stamp before the scratching, and after... and in this case "c'est un garcon" - "it's a boy":)

There is of course also the girl version. Merci beaucoup Anais!
