I just added nine new pages from my collection showing covers from the Nepalese courts in the Tibetan towns of Khasa, Kuti, Kyrong and Lhasa to my website at nepalstamps.com. I am completely reworking my collection and have added a substantial amount of material beyond the original exhibit that has been on my site for the last couple of years. I hope to add a new section to my site every week or two. Hopefully, some of the new material shown will be of interest to the rest of our community. Any comments, corrections or suggestions are welcome and greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Ed Gosnell

Rainer, I agree with you. I think they do not know what they are offering.
That happens sometimes… Thumbs Down

I guess they will not sell also in that auction. It is a disappointing behaviour from the auction house.]]> Wed, 04 Jan 2012 10:02:09 +0000 http://www.fuchs-online.com/forum/telegraph-stamps-on-telegraph-form_topic131.html Classic Stamps (Kukris issues) : Telegraph stamps on Telegraph Form http://www.fuchs-online.com/forum/telegraph-stamps-on-telegraph-form_topic131_post420.html#420 Author: gandarva

Subject: F.M. Bailey Covers
Posted: 23 December 2011 at 4:53am

I resently purchased an interesting cover mailed from New Delhi on January 28, 1935 with a British Legation Nepal wax seal on the back. The Nepalese Prime Minister Juddha Shumster was on an official visit to New Delhi at this time. Obviously, someone from the Nepalese British Legation accompanied him. The hand writing on the cover appears to me to match that of Major F.M. Bailey, the famous British political agent and spy, who was the British representative to Nepal in the late 1930's. I know that his position there ended in 1938; but I can find no date of when he was first appointed. Does anyone know? Please note the resemblance of the word "England" on the 1935 cover to the same word on a verified Bailey legation cover that I own from 1937 which was apparently sent to a relative.

Happy Holidays to All,

Ed Gosnell

I have a Mac also. Rainer, do you know the name of the one on your computer? If so, I will try to find it with Google and download it to my work computer. Oh, and thanks for offering to convert dates. I will find a couple and take you up on your kind offer, but it will taken me a few days.]]> Mon, 19 Dec 2011 02:47:30 +0000 http://www.fuchs-online.com/forum/calendar-converter-bikram-sambat-to-gregorian_topic84.html
