Staffa postage stamps

[darklisruthven]

Just in the process of listing more stamps on our fundraising theatre group store.
I have a sheet of stamps from Staffa, I am right that this is a Scottish island? (just checking)

second queston, is there any secret collector-jargon for stamps that do not have frills, I have a set of Middle Eastern stamps due to list in a few mins which do not have frills.

Hi Yes Staffa is a Scottish island- best to list under GB Local issues or Cinderellas; sounds like your Middle East set is imperforate (imperf) if it has no perforations.

All the best

A cinderella is anything that is not issued by an official postal authority.

I like the use of 'frills', good for an advertising slogan.

They could be called "Innie & Outie bits" (Red Dwarf fans will recognise the reference)
