Truely amazing, I love those. I’d love to have an explanation on the airplane going into an ear and how this is related to environment…

these are just beautiful…

Its not to so much that the Airplane is going into someone’s ear as it is the sound from the airplane. This would be noise pollution. Maybe this guy lives near an airport.
hmmm

Gerit,
Thanks for sharing these. Amazing examples!

loving them!

They’re superb! Thanks for posting them. Managed to find them on ebay so you’ll have to forgive a Grain Edit rip off Ace Jet entry soon. I’ll give you full credit of course.

Hey Richard,
Great! I’m glad you were able to find a copy on ebay. I love this set. I wish the stamps in the U.S. looked like this!
There’s one more stamp in the series. It’s really good as well. I’ll try to post it when I get a chance.

i managed to find a sheet off of ebay as well. beautiful! the airplane design is my fav. thanks grain edit for making me a bigger nerd than i already am. :) LOL

You made me break out my stamp collection and as I don’t know how to post them here in this message box, I’ll send them out to you via e-mail. Loved the stamps. So lovely and ingenious.

I am a big fan of Israeli postage stamp design
(especially from the 70’s and 80’s)
and I love these two! Thx.
