Many Exhibitions, Expositions, Events and Fairs, especially European ones, have issued labels in different languages, they make quite an interesting and often beautiful collection in their own right. The 1912 Stockholm Olympic games spring to mind but there are many. Might make for a nice thread that can be added to as labels are found or seen. LB1

It will be a pleasure to have you in Barcelona, Michael. And, you're right; althought our language is Catalan, we've cinderellas in Spanish, French, English, Esperanto...Even, in Latin.

I was worried about you hence the messages and email. Terrible times. On a brighter note, can you get me a copy of those labels and what looks like a folder ? I will pay all costs. They are lovely and are made for my Cinderella Flag Collection !! Pretty Please ! Londonbus1

Thank you for your interest, both in us and in our cinderellas. There are, actually, 6 cinderellas and a dozen mini-sheets printed on a number of papers and inks. All of them inside a special cover. They were printed by a friend of mine, who organizes the gathering. As he's not rich, he just prints cinderellas for the attendants. I'll ask him if he have any left and I'll be very glad to send them to you. By the way, cannot show material like this on Spanish speaking fòrums, as they're mad against anything related to the Catalan Independence. I've stopped posting there. |

Perhaps it's time for Catalonia to issue some more stamps - perhaps commemorating the recent push for independence. Maybe some capable artistamp producer will offer his/her services?
