There must have been ten boys and twenty girls. The number of bows girl to girl was therefore 380, of boy to boy 90, of girl with boy 400, and of boys and girls to teacher 30, making together 900, as stated. It will be remembered that it was not said that the teacher himself returned the bows of any child.
Dear visitor, above is the solution of a puzzle I have published on my facebook-page, only to make people visit my blog. If you want the puzzle, then visit my FB-page.
I have lots and lots of stamps for exchange. Over 200 different countries, lots of thematic stamps. Given the fact that I started collecting at the age of 9 or 10, and that I have become an elderly person these days, you can conclude that I collect for (over) 50 years now. Imagening that my collection does not fit in an album - nor in a bookcase - any more you understand that I decided to get rid of my doubles and of all the material that does not fit in what I call my "new collection".
Hence I put some stamps for exchange here. But when I looked at my boxes, albums and enveloppes I realised I was trying to move a mountain. So I deleted the posts. They are still on my facebook-page where you can consult them.
If there are stamps you need then please contact me. Send me an e-mail (see right-side) or contact me on facebook.
Another decision that I have made is not to sell stamps. So : exchange only. When you have stuff that interests me the better, if not then send me what you can send me keeping an eye on the quality and quantity. Catalog value is not important for me, exept for the very rare items.
A friend has send me a picture of an unusual cancellation a couple of weeks ago. After a long search I found one in my collection that looks a bit similar. At first sight the text looked Hebrew, but when turning it upside-down it can read as "STATION". But that brings us no answer so far. Can it be dummies from a training centre, or package post marks with a greasy ink ? Anyone has something similar in his collection ? Note that the mark is on the same type of stamp !
29.03.2017 : The picture left was sent to me by Mr. Zedane.
As you see there is a stamp with the same cancellations as in the large picture underneath.
I collect "worldwide" used stamps before 1990. It is not my goal to get a complete collection of each country of the world, haha.
There are a couple of countries that I prefer : Great Britain, France, Belgium and The Netherlands. From these I collect the stamps, obliterations, stamps on "piece" (enveloppe, card, etc), and some FDC's. Also plate-flaws, printing errors, colour shades, etc.
