But a convincing proposed interpretation by Catweazle

Thailand perhaps?

Not correct.

RogerE · Post by **RogerE** » 07 Sep 2020 04:22

Time for another guess. Could it be from Vietnam?

Wrong continent.

Stamp collector · Post by **Stamp collector** » 07 Sep 2020 04:53

Is the stamp from Northern Hemisphere?

That is correct.

From Europe?

Correct also.

Nice progress from the guesses. Perhaps time for a clearer pic?

Catweazle · Post by **Catweazle** » 08 Sep 2020 22:12

Europe, hah! I'd never have guessed that!

Funny though, because that symbol does look familiar to me. Would we be west of where the 'iron curtain' once stood?

turtle-bienhoa · Post by **turtle-bienhoa** » 08 Sep 2020 22:53

That is not the way.

Catweazle · Post by **Catweazle** » 08 Sep 2020 23:19

Eastern Europe, then?

Yes.
New hint:

Czech Republic ?

Nope

Bulgaria, 1989, one of the 2 stamps commemorating the World Canoeing Championship in Plovdiv, Bulgaria.

Considering the next challenge is coming from a sports specialist
Does the snap you showed us feature a part of a mascot of a sports event?

vicaf60 · Post by **vicaf60** » 09 Sep 2020 04:42

No, sir

RogerE · Post by **RogerE** » 09 Sep 2020 05:43

Just catching up here. Good work vicaf60

And I'm so pleased to see all the flock from Shaun the Sheep doing the congratulating.

Possibly, this will make guessing easier

turtle-bienhoa · Post by **turtle-bienhoa** » 11 Sep 2020 12:35

I have put the stamps for your giveaway in the mail yesterday.
Can you upload the cover (front and back) when you receive it?
Regards,
Tuấn
P/S: Is 1989 the year?

vicaf60 · Post by **vicaf60** » 11 Sep 2020 17:04

Sure, I will post the scans in the Forums upon receiving your letter

Concerning your question - I'm not sure such specific questions are allowed, however, the answer is - No

turtle-bienhoa · Post by **turtle-bienhoa** » 11 Sep 2020 23:08

Does the stamp feature a winter sport?

vicaf60 · Post by **vicaf60** » 11 Sep 2020 23:22

vicaf60 · Post by **vicaf60** » 12 Sep 2020 18:14

To speed up the process - a bigger fragment

Stamp collector · Post by **Stamp collector** » 12 Sep 2020 18:20

Speeding up the process
Is it issued by a country in the northern hemisphere?

vicaf60 · Post by **vicaf60** » 12 Sep 2020 18:29

Stamp collector · Post by **Stamp collector** » 12 Sep 2020 18:34

Issued by a country in Europe?

vicaf60 · Post by **vicaf60** » 12 Sep 2020 18:38

Yes again.

You are close on the way to a triple Yes

Stamp collector · Post by **Stamp collector** » 12 Sep 2020 18:50

A country in Eastern Europe ?

vicaf60 · Post by **vicaf60** » 12 Sep 2020 18:56

Well, a dubious question

Geographically - No

Politically - half-yes, it was considered once an East European country.

So I hesitate with my answer as I don't know which classification you meant

Stamp collector · Post by **Stamp collector** » 12 Sep 2020 19:07

I am confused myself too

How about Russia?

vicaf60 · Post by **vicaf60** » 12 Sep 2020 19:21

I could have added still more confusion, however, I will replt simply - no

Stamp collector · Post by **Stamp collector** » 12 Sep 2020 20:26

One of the countries which emerged from the U.S.S.R.?

vicaf60 · Post by **vicaf60** » 12 Sep 2020 20:40

Stamp collector · Post by **Stamp collector** » 12 Sep 2020 20:47

Perhaps this should have been my first guess but here we go
Bulgaria ?

vicaf60 · Post by **vicaf60** » 12 Sep 2020 20:57

Finally you got there - yes

Stamp collector · Post by **Stamp collector** » 12 Sep 2020 21:28

Quite a bit of progress we had.............
Was the stamp issue after year 2000?

Vicaf60, was your Bulgarian mystery stamp issued before 1990?

/RogerE

vicaf60 · Post by **vicaf60** » 15 Sep 2020 03:15

Sure it was

Stamp collector · Post by **Stamp collector** » 15 Sep 2020 03:19

Was it issued after 1975?

vicaf60 · Post by **vicaf60** » 15 Sep 2020 03:25

Again yes

Panterra · Post by **Panterra** » 15 Sep 2020 23:41

I am guessing it is this one:

Bulgaria 1979 Olympics, 2 stotinki: parallel bars.

vicaf60 · Post by **vicaf60** » 16 Sep 2020 00:07

Sure it is

Here, it looks somewhat better, though

Your postal address to the studio, Sir

Greetings to all philatelists,

Here is a portion of the stamp that you are sure to be familiar with:

: but what ever stamp is this?

I have carefully perused the instructions for this thread on page 1, and do not see that I am obligated to actually give the clever winner the stamp in question, so I will promise to send the happy winner a nice assortment of stamps from my island, New Zealand, plus a few nearby islands, as the stamp shown is residing happily in my collection and I don't have a spare. (But it does meet one of the three conditions for inclusion in this quiz.)

Good luck! I will answer any questions if you need some clues.

turtle-bienhoa · Post by **turtle-bienhoa** » 16 Sep 2020 01:29

Bulgaria again?
After 1970?

Panterra · Post by **Panterra** » 16 Sep 2020 01:34

No, it is not Bulgaria.

And before 1970.
