Here's a very interesting item. A propaganda sheet, in poor condition, appearing to be from Norway and depicting a raid on Lofoten Radio station in 1941. Further text suggests that it is a draft for a stamp competition with further designs to follow.

In fact theses stamps and 3 other designs were produce by the British Special Operations Executive (SOE) during World War II and known as the Norwegian Collection. According to psywar.com, available to view on the wayback machine here https://web.archive.org/web/20190506075221/www.psywar.org/content/stamps
They were airdropped in June and September 1941 over Bergen. This is an original sheet

It looks like there must be problems relating to image hosting in the UK.
I have switched from Imgur to Flickr but this may affect many images.
I have replaced the image but I'm horrified, I can't replace multiple images if they have all disappeared.
