Sunday Stamps II A-Z 'S' Saargebiet, Southern Rhodesia, USA

Before we move on from Rhodesia there is just one more stamp to show.

19 February 1964

That was the only stamp I had from there.

After university I started my working career at a UK steelworks in in the town of Scunthorpe (another 'S') so I was quite pleased to see that another single stamp in my collection shows a steelworks in what is now the Saar in Germany.

Saargebiet -1926 - Burbach Hütte

I'm pleased that there is an 'S' in the USA. However there is no doubt about the 's' in steel of which there must have been a lot in - 

Seattle World's Fair 1962 - Space Needle & Monorail

Industry on Sunday Stamps

I'm staying in Europe for my stamps on an industrial theme.

From Norway I found  a stamp commemorating the centenary of the handcraft man's society in 1986.

As I started my career in industry at a British steelworks I was pleased to find I had a steelworks stamp - not from Britain though.
