A dhow is a sailing boat. What I like about this issue is the peculiar shape of the stamps but it seems to be apt. The shape is resemblant of a sail and very unique. Perfect fit to my collection of odd shaped stamps on cover.

I really like the shape of these stamps, so clever.
ReplyDeleteYes Eva, the shape is fitting. I would love to have one more set of these stamps mint or used for my collection.
