My first post for 2025 come courtesy of Posta in the Faroe Islands. I was in Shanghai a couple of weeks back attending the Asian International Stamp Exhibition. Posta, Faroe Islands was represented at this exhibition and they had a sales booth. When inquired the kind Lady manning the sales booth informed me that she had a couple of stamps of Lighthouses available which she had brought along with her. So I purchased some stamps fixed three stamps on a cover and handed the cover back to her with a request to post it from the Faroes when she gets back. I am very happy that she obliged me. I could not have asked for a nicer cancelation than what you see on the cover. My thanks go out to her for taking the trouble to post this cover from the Faroe Islands. Thank you very much.
