I'm stampolina and I love to take photos of stamps. Thanks for visiting this pages on flickr.
I'm neither a typical collector of stamps, nor a stamp dealer. I'm only a stamp photograph. I'm fascinated of the fine close-up structures which are hidden in this small stamp-pictures. Please don't ask of the worth of these stamps - the most ones have a worth of a few cents or still less.
By the way, I wanna say thank you to all flickr users who have sent me stamps! Great! Thank you! Someone sent me 3 or 5 stamps, another one sent me more than 20 stamps in a letter. It's everytime a great surprise for me and I'm everytime happy to get letters with stamps inside from you!
thx, stampolina
For the case you wanna send also stamps - it is possible. (...I'm pretty sure you'll see these stamps on this photostream on flickr :) thx!

Stamp overprinted with new design: Helmut Qualtinger
Following on from the artistic overprint of the Euro 0.51 definitive depicting the "Schönlaterngasse" (Beautiful lantern alley) the remaining definitives, which no longer correspond to the new tariffs, have now likewise been overprinted with the new standard value of 55 cents. Students of the University for Applied Arts in Vienna were invited to compete in the production of the best design. The task was to create original graphic designs with which the old nominal values would be overprinted. The students of 2 master classes set about the project with great enthusiasm and came up with excellent, innovative and unexpected ideas. The best designs were selected by a panel of judges in conjunction with the Austrian Post AG and are now available as stamps. In 2005 eight definitives were reissued as the new overprinted Euro 0.55 stamps. Euro 0.27 – Helmut Qualtingers' famous words "Austria is a labyrinth where everyone knows their way around" dominate the scene of the Steinernes Meer mountains.
