Flag of Bhutan

Bhutan, officially the Kingdom of Bhutan, is a landlocked state in South Asia, located at the eastern end of the Himalayas and bordered to the south, east and west by the Republic of India and to the north by the People's Republic of China. Bhutan is separated from the nearby country of Nepal to the west by the Indian state of Sikkim, and from Bangladesh to the south by West Bengal.

Lou Guadagno wrote: I had made a notation in my database long, long ago that the left margin of the Bhutan s/s Sc #309 had a portion of a design from the first Bhutan definitive issue of 1962, and I left it at that.  After I created my Design Component designation to rename the disliked Type Bs in the lists, I realized it also could include stamps that only used a portion of a stamp. Looking thru my collection, I found many such issues, and started revising my IDs to include them. 

For Bhutan #309 I added: Bhutan #1-- design component: postal runner on mountain side,  in changed colors. I had bought a set of the 1962 issue so that I could mount a #1 and #5 with two other Bhutan issues, but when seeing the actual #5, it rang a bell in my head. I compared it to the margin of #309, and saw the green and lilac colors of #5 were similar and that black accents were added on the s/s. Back I went to my database, and changed it to: Bhutan #5-- design component: postal runner on mountain side, in similar colors, black accents added.

Lou wrote: On the margins of Bhutan s/s #916 are 16 U. S. private local stamps.

The companies that created them provided faster or needed delivery services beyond that of the U. S. Post Office, but many were shut down by it for infringing on its monopoly for mail handling.  All but one are listed in the Scott Specialized Catalogue of U.S. Stamps, at a wide range of values. and some have interesting histories worth researching. One instance the Bicycle Mail stamp was for a relay of cyclers that carried mail overnight on a 210 mile route between Fresno and San Francisco during a rail strike. Note that the designer/printer of the stamps created a spelling error, "Fransisco" for "Francisco".

I identified these 30+ years ago, and added scans much later.  Most of those were of poor quality or were reprints or counterfeits, and so I updated many with actual major auction catalog illustrations.

I believe the Blood & Co. City Despatch "stamp" on the s/s to be such a reprint/counterfeit, as the typefaces and spacings do not match any in the auction catalogs I reviewed.
