I'm suddenly missing all kinds of data on Lastdodo.
For example, Bulgaria is no longer included in the country list.
My stamp collection has shrunk drastically.
The same goes for my shop.
Is there an explanation for this?

#5939265 I wouldn't be so quick #5939261 stop in 1 series or 1 issue group. I don't see them as coherent. The format is different, the layout is different, the message is different and the nominal values overlap.

Also included #5939261 .
I've mentioned that before. These post urchins belong to both Indonesia and Malaysia (Malacca). Before and after the Japanese occupation, Riau belonged to Indonesia, while Malacca later became part of Malaysia, but in any case did not belong to Indonesia. Japan turned this into its own unit. In any case, there are duplicate stamps in the catalogue. The only correct solution is to create a new area. A suitable name could be Malacca/Riau - Japanese occupation and an alias Riau/Malacca - Japanese occupation.

#556321 might be simple. I added that second scan this week because I didn't think it should be a separate item. If that is allowed, the second scan can be rejected to begin with. I still have the scan, so I'm creating a new item with it and transferring my ownership. I don't think anyone has wanted to claim ownership of that second scan in the last few days either

Created #10315957 and moved myself there. The second scan of #556321 can therefore be deleted

I regularly browse through various (underexposed) sections.
This time an expression of a Dutch subculture attracted attention: Ether piracy.
Pirate culture has been recognized as Cultural Heritage in the Netherlands in 2021.

A nice little expression of this can be seen in the Stickers section of the Ether Pirates series.

No, nothing wrong. I think you bought a 'blank'. The name I give to those offers that you can place in your shop where there is no basis in the catalog. In other words, you can also put your mother-in-law in it (in the shop). Picture, text, prize and voila. Is for sale.
Was a solution for, for example, incomplete series and partially filled stock books or for users who want to use LD as a kind of 2nd hand.

Oh yeah. That comment from Frenchstamps... I never get it explained in any company or perhaps even to myself why I collect anything at all, let alone stamps. At 51 years old, I feel like the youngest collector in the Netherlands, also at the Filanumis fair last Saturday. When someone in this, according to the news, dying activity, starts to say that my collection is too niche compared to his idea of collecting stamps... I am the first to laugh at so much nonsense. Apparently it was so high that it had to come out here, like some kind of Tourette's. But furthermore: of which. I like Stadspost because of the many stories it contains, the affordability and the search. And anyone who doesn't think so doesn't think so.

Back to the suggestion for an administrator of Stadspost NL here on Lastdodo: de facto I am already trying to keep up. I don't necessarily aspire to the title of administrator, but it can make some things easier.

Sorry, I don't think it's really a Ronson. It was more to indicate that the name Senator is more commonly used for lighters.
#8641231 resembles in shape an imitation of an American Cli-Cla disposable lighter (see for example Ebay: Cli-Cla Bat Masterson). Manufacturing seems a little less likely to me. Benefit of the doubt, I would also say.

Can you take another look at Bobby Vee in the Artists.
I think the name is there twice, edited once and not 102 times.

But there are collectors of "shit".
Just as there are collectors of 'the real stuff'.

Maybe VDS liked a good cigar every now and then.
Enough cigar bands with Suske and Wiske.
So yes, VDS cooperated with advertising for certain 'purposes'.
And probably a Ronson Senator lighter.
See #1731823
#8641231 legal? illegal? Manufacturing?
Benefit of the doubt, surely?

use it to create separate items
That's good to hear. What is in the catalogue, even if it does not comply with the agreements made, is sometimes followed. Then it gets worse.
In addition, exceptional situations sometimes create a precedent, which can subsequently give rise to a hellish discussion. Anticipation is always better than recovery.
I base this on 3 catalogues
Normally we don't follow a catalogue, but if 3 different sources of information (I won't call them catalogues) classify them this way... that must have been thought about. and these information sources are also used by collectors and sellers of city and regional mail.

Now I wonder whether a position for a 'City and Regional Post' area manager would be possible. Mainly for the Netherlands (half of the city and regional postal items in the LD stamp section). You might be a suitable candidate for that.
The Netherlands has the largest number of unreviewed items, and city and regional mail is a very large part of that...
As an area manager you have the advantage of often being able to decide for yourself what does or does not belong together in one Issue group (one of the most important management instruments in an area). Unless there is a different judgment from the highest scaffold (which will not happen very often).
I'll leave that to Collectioneur and postmaster . It's just an idea that came to mind.

I am not in favor of whether they should be divided into different 'Issue groups'. But it is possible and allowed. It is not a division based on a specific property found in the data.

I base this on 3 catalogues, all of which use the same division:
- the Private Postal Delivery Study Group (SPP), which has the most complete catalog to date
- the City Postal Catalog 2009
- the City Postal Catalog 2012/2013

I would find it very strange not to follow that. I have made peace with the block/sheet discussion and I don't feel so strongly about it. The definition in the manual is quite workable, so I try to follow it.
We never include blocks together in a Series item. that's how it is now.
In this case it might be a shame. But they are and remain blocks. Even though it is always a block with one stamp, with not much sheet edge around it.
Okay... then I'll start working on making separate items.

Frenchstamps Of which act

It is not unlikely that the use of the image took place without permission, but I see no conclusive evidence.


Bearing in mind that VDS did not/never 'provided' cooperation in advertising for certain products or purposes.

What is this statement based on? Is that a statement from Vandersteen himself?


The manufacturer mentioned in/on this item is a manufacturer of cigars...

Doesn't seem very likely to me. If it were an advertising article from Senator Cigaren, this would be stated much more emphatically. The lettering also does not appear to be the same as that of the Senator Cigars.
In this case it is most likely just a brand (or type) of (cheap) lighters. The name may be a reference to the Ronson Senator lighter.
