A quick UK internet search didn't help, but I am presuming it was published in the USA!

When they open I'll ring Foyles - a big UK book store which literally seems to be a copyright library - it's hard to find anything published that's not in there (although an exception only proves a rule eh?

fingers crossed!

Yes I agree!

It also caught my eye as August the 12th is the date Mark and I started going out - just over 6 years ago!

:)

No, I have not even seen these stamps! I have not got the TT and ROTK stamps for LOTR but no HP ones... have you got a link with some pictures?

:D

Thanks!

Roz

They are cooool!

Are they current? You are going to have to start selling them to board members.. :) but we will only take delivery of them if you use HP stamps to send them  ;D just kidding but we bought some LOTR stamps once and they had done that and I thought it was a nice touch to buy LOTR loose stamps to post them with

I would buy and send you a copy of the equivalent LOTR set with the HP ones - but they are completely sold out! Ouch :-\ - I am not a stamp collector myself, nevertheless, I should have gotten a set when they first came out, but kept putting it off. Australia post seem to be putting out a set for each new blockbuster - Shrek 2 set has been released

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=3476&item=5516940130&rd=1

Here's an auction for one, let me know if you like it and I will see if I can send a set off for you for Xmas :)

 :o

You had stamps in Australia too!!!

I had only heard of the Isle of Man and the NZ ones!

Wow!

You didn't in the UK? I am surprised... ???

We seem to take any opportunity to print out souvenir stamp sheets - just released stamps for every Aussie Olympic gold medallist this week 8)

Well - we did have some LOTR stamps but they were traditional LOTR - old drawings of scenes like the tree of Gondor - very cool but lacking in the Viggo stakes  ::)

: ferdinand_the_yak September 01, 2004, 09:14:59 PM
Oh Roz... and I thought you liked LOTR for the storyline alone 8)

Well... I did buy a set of the stamps... in presentation pack, first day cover and postcard set to share with Mark... so it's not like I was dis-interested - it's just that they have an old and mysterious feel to them rather than the filmy feel! Which despite using lots of this art has a totally different feel!
