Travel the World of Postage Stamps -Cars - Austin, 1922 - Cuba 1984 - Michel Cuba 2903 - my hobby
Greetings friends!
*This morning I went to the post office and inquired about the availability of new stamps on sale, this new year 2022.
*But, to my regret, in the post office there were only last year's postage stamps intended for recommended, registered letters.
*Their difference from ordinary postage stamps is that instead of the face value, the letter "F" is indicated there.
*The cost of these stamps is the same and amounts to 25 Ukrainian hryvnias, which is quite expensive, about 0.9 US dollars.
*Moreover, for this money, they could offer something that attracts attention, but, perhaps, later, such postage stamps will end up in my collection. Sometimes, they can be bought for less than par.
*But, leaving the post office, I wanted to see those old postage stamps that are stored in my collection.
*I do not regret purchasing any of them, they have some kind of indescribable warmth.
*Probably, this is how people relate to old, rarity cars, which have a special charm.
*Yes, they don't have three hundred horses hiding under their hood, they puff, kick, but they ride, lol.
*We will see such cars depicted on a series of postage stamps Cars, produced on the island of Cuba in 1984.
*My collection starts with the second postage stamp of this series and this postage stamp with a face value of 2 Cuban centavos will show us the car Austin, 1922.
*Today, it is difficult to imagine how in 1922 cars came from the mainland to Cuba, how their maintenance was carried out.
*Imagine how long it had to wait for the delivery of parts to replace the failed car parts.
*Probably the best solution was to buy two cars at once, one to drive, and the other, as needed disassemble for parts, lol.
**Let's take a look at this postage stamp.

I edited a photo in the program PhotoDirector, which I also installed on my smartphone. For my publications, I do not use stock photographs, it is fundamentally important for me to use photographs that I have made with my own hands for publication and I can name them - authorial work.
