sunday drive


There is so much I love about this - the focus on the grilles, the positioning of each car in an alternate direction, and the odometer cancel. And, of course, the cars themselves, from the 1950s/early 60s: a Triumph TR3; MG TD; Austin Healey; Jaguar; Morgan Plus Four (issued 1996)


 and then these interesting beauties issued in 1993

Henry Seth Taylor Steam Buggy (1867); Ford Model T (1914);  McLaughlin Buick (1928); Russell Touring Car (1908); Studebaker Starlight Coupe (1950); Gray Dort Luxury Sedan (1924)

from Germany, a more modern car: a lovely blue Porsche circa 1965

    I guess I am staying at home today, but I like your stamps. Especially the design on the first FDC. Not the usual view!

    I have posted some cars here.

      I've always been partial to the Jags, though that Porsche would come close as a substitute. However, if I got in it, I'd have a really hard time getting out - it would not be elegant!

    Yes I like those grill close ups too, a spin in any of those cars would be fun.
    My autos are here

    Those postmarks are so perfect on the FDC. You've got some great stamps to share today.
