The Viking Ship Museum in Oslo contains three Viking ships - Tune, Gokstad and Oseberg. In 2014 Norway issued a set of three stamps to commemorate the Museum Unfortunately the one in my collection does not show a ship.

Saudi Arabia has vast reserves of oil so it should be no surprise that their stamps reflect this.

In 2000 the first series of Millennium Project 'Above and Beyond' stamps included one of my favourite birds.

Now if you are wise you will look for other 'O' related stamps at Sunday-Stamps-o.

I don't know, but those two Vikings look like they are engaging in a rather friendly battle!
Love the close up view of an owl. A popular bird, I believe this year's owl and owlet set has been in high demand.
The owl stamp is stunning. I thought the Millennium series was beautifully done.
I'd never think of oil, but now I think there must be a lot of stamps about this theme, especially in certain countries.
Haha, indeed violet, that doesn't seem an angry battle at all!
I love owls but that stamp makes it a bit scary :)
Wot no ships? I love the owl.
