My stamping adventures

Space ... the final frontier

stamps used:  Stamp Oasis(star trek but might be out of business), Moon Rose (lines), Rubber Stamps of America (starship postmark-out of business)
Sorry that most of these stamps are unfortunately...out of business but who knows maybe you can do a search and find them somewhere.  They are in my stash and I just wanted to play with them mainly because, the post office came out with the Star Trek stamps.  and at times it's fun to get out the old and bring them back to life so that is what I did.  these are simple but, I think effective cards that are stamped and colored with Prisma color pencils.  I made three sets of these cards to give to my postal workers at my local post office which is actually a sub office because it is so small and I know the workers by name in fact I used to bowl with one of them.  So today live long and prosper.

  1. Yes, Stamp Oasis and RSA have gone the way of so many stamp companies. I had a chat one day, while visiting the SO store in Vegas, with the owner, who admitted that dealing with the Intellectual Property Rights lawyers at Paramount was an absolute nightmare. I have a few of the SO ST stamps, and also have the RSA Enterprise cancellation in my some-going-back-30-years stamp stash.

    1. It is hard for any specialty store but stamp stores it is really hard. I worked in one for six years so I saw the ups and downs of it first hand. thank you for you comments.
