Netherland Comics

Location - Yucatan Channel - 22 11 N,085 58 W

I always worry about whether my stamps or sheets in a swap reached the other person or not. I'm mortified that I'd post a swapped stamp here only to get a comment from the concerned person that the stamp s/he swapped for never reached them.

So it is with a clear conscience that I can show you these cartoon stamps of the Netherlands as sent by Cees of the chicken blog (link on the right of the blog). She had exchanged these and the smurf maxicard (shown earlier) for a few chicken stamps of Thailand. These stamps are much like the comic stamps of Netherland I had shown earlier from Wim but I'm not really sure of the background.

The easiest one to understand is the bottom stamp in which the goalie realises that he's going to catch the shoe while the football is going past him in the goal. :)

Thanks for the swap Cees & I'll definitely drop by your blog when I get online the next time.

Hello Velu,

The Dutch Comic stamps are related to strips. The second stamp is from a Belgian strip. They show a very small part of a story.

The Last one is the Jaap strip, alway's does stupid sport's things. Great strip.
