Principality of Sealand

   A question or two to Sealand collectors out there:
- I'm looking for scans/pictures of First Day Covers. The only I have are from 1969 and 2002.

- I'm also looking for larger part sheets of the 1970 issues, i.e. 'Ships', 'Marine animals', 
'Admirals & Pirates' as well as 'Painting of the Sea'. Larger than just one set of the smaller values, 8 large format values and 4 souvenir sheets.
Or even a picture of an entire printing sheet... 

Perhaps there is an expert Sealand collector out there with whom I could compare notes.

Any help is most welcome!

Best regards

Doktorvonwer

	I'll bump my request, because I really need to compare notes with other Sealand collectors. Is anybody out there who has Sealand stamps or sheets of - the "Women's Year" issue (1975), - the Children's drawing stamp (2002), - the Royal Family set (2004) or - the sunrise set (2010)? Any FDC information is also very welcome! Best regards - doktorvonwer

	Hi doktorvonwer, I have a few of their stamps but no covers. You might try the Sealand website where it appears that the 2010 Sunrise stamps are still available: http://sealandgov.org/shop/sealand-stamps/ Although Roy and Joan Bates are no longer with us, their son Michael or his son James are still running Sealand and you could direct an enquiry through the website and see if they can check their archives for information. Good luck, Daniel
