CARPINTIC STAMPS,

DISSATISFACTION AMONGST SOME

PHILATELISTS, BA

Philatelists, or in plain English, stamp collectors, are prof. undly dissatisfied with Great Britain's penny post ge stamp.

Mr. Alfred East, A.R.A., president of the Royal Society of Brish Artists, found sym pachaile Rateners when he said at a gathering: of them that there was room for improvement in the present issue, and that it was not sasy to see at a glance whether a stamp was affixed, to a jetter wrong side up; while Mr. Hanniter Heston; that vigilant critic of Post Office ways | And shortcomings,"certainly scored a point on the sime occasion, when he said that tha English penny' stamp not only failed as an anistic production, but that it was the only ene In the world on which the country of origin' was not mentioned.

in consequence. But taken altogether pur stamps are, unworthy of a great nation. Com- pare them with those of the United States, or even of little Stater like Guatemala"or some^of our own Colonies. The New Zealand lamps,".- which depict: mountains and' other"natural" features of that country, are particularly beauti ful. Even the Niger' Coast" Proteclerate and. Southern Nigeria are ahead of us in this respect. Our English stumps are fit and wanting in 'clearness of outline,

な

What the reason of this may be, I, saya an expert, cannot tell you, but it in something in the process of engraving. I am bound to Kay, ...... however, that I'd not think there is much in Mr. East's complaint'that it is difficult to sea whether the King's head is upside down, or not. My eyesight' is not so good ansit mond to be, but this objection has certainly sever. occurred to me, Nor does li seem to me to be very important that the name of ite country of issue should appear on a stamp,

at all events on a stimp so widely known as that of the United Kingdom, 'It'\ is» possible that in some, remote savae region people might not know the 'significance of King Edward's bust, but I very much doubt whether such people are addicted to philately. In fact, any criticismit I have to make on our stamps are from the artistic, not the practical, point of view.

An, engraver, who has had experience of making dies for foreigo stamps and work of s. similar description, fully agreed that the out

ine of the engraving on one stamp "leares much to be desired. The fault, he said, lius in the engraving.
