# 500 - Lighthouses of Taiwan

 













Today I am happy to show cover # 500. I started this blog way back in February 2009. Ever since I have had several friends from around the world contributing to this blog. Thank you very much.

On this cover are three of the five stamps from Taiwan issued on 3rd November 2020. From left to right are Chiutzu Lighthouse, Peiting Lighthouse and Kuosheng Lighthouse.

My thanks to Michael Ho from Taiwan for sending me this cover.

# 499 - Lighthouses of Germany

 











This is the second cover from Ulf Gebhard (the first being cover no 498). On this cover the First Day Cancelations are from Bonn. The stamp feature Alte Weser Lighthouse.

Ulf tells me that this will be the last issue of the German Longhouses stamp series which commenced in 2004.

The stamp on this cover features Alte Weser Lighthouse. The stamp was issued on 4th July 2024. On this cover Ulf has obtained for me the Berlin First Day cancelation.
