@elmstead: I read you, but not well enough. Sorry. As you were not talking about the text of the horizontal selvage in your description (which might be "Laernu" in the top right part and the bottom right part), nor of the text part "© 2020" for the vertical selvage of the bottom right corner, I thought it was missing text information. This, of course, if the selvages of the mixed variant sheet are identical to those of the sheet of 15 standard + 1 variant, and taking into account that the sizes of the 2 types of sheets can be different. @Steve: The account I made for your discovered stamps was good or was I wrong? Do you have 7 or 6 diffrents stamps in the loose pairs? (not counting the early bird) Don't be surprised by my question, and please forgive me, your reasoning is certainly very clear, but English is not my native language ... so I'm a bit lost |

sorry about the quality of the image I had to use my old iPad
but this is the sheet that I think we could piece together once everyone has their stamps I deliberately cropped out the central images so I didn't give away the variants (the Lower Horizontal strips of the bottom two stamps are both blank) |

Interesting, the selvage text is on the height of 3 stamps ... for the normal sheet it is on the height of 4 stamps ...

and to answer Jerakeen....
I don't have the Top Right corner, only the Lower right corner, so the sheet could be larger than 3 stamps tall
and I think there are four variants and the standard stamp (where the variation is in the central image) There is also an inverted stamp (the Bonus stamp minisheet contains this) So, all six stamps appear in the pairs of stamps and single stamps contained in the "bags of stamps"available on Ebay.(use the search terms Learnu or Isle of Vue) However, there is a seventh stamp "the Early bird" which appears to be a colour variation of the standard stamp and I was asking if anyone had found this Early bird stamp in their "bags of stamps" (I so want to type LBE) and so far it appears the answer is "No"

Back behind a desk now, perhaps the only beneficiary of Coronavirus!
Don't let my personal problems affect anything here, I am sure everyone who bought them in february has their stamps by now and my own will not be far away

By now everyone who bought the 2020 Isle of Vue stamps should have received a little Halloween extra, just a little thing to cheer us up in these sometimes miserable times.
Thank you all for your support over the years, I don't take it for granted, and it gets more difficult each year to come up with something new! But you lovely people make it all worthwhile And a big thank you to all the people who had asked if it was OK to put up pictures on the forum or on Facebook and have been happy to hold back until (hopefully!) the post has reached the futhest outposts of Europe and the USA. |

It was indeed a splendid surprise to have the Isle of Whoooo!! items drop through my letter box. It all adds to the history of Laernu and the Isle of Vue. The minisheet of stamps is so much appreciated, while the newspaper clipping and the tickets for the All Hallows celebrations brings this so much to life.
I hope Colin doesn''t mind me having a little play with his stamps. These and much more of Colin's output is outlined here |

Once artwork is out there in the public domain there really isn't much I can do about it ;-) Did you really only receive 3 attractions tickets? Something must have gone wrong there... Thanks for posting! .
