🇬🇧 In Blog 1742 I described and illustrated the Post and Go strips which were being dispensed from kiosk A009 situated in the Shakespeare Birthplace gift shop in Stratford upon Avon. For a very short time one of the values was inscribed ‘Zone 1 - 3’. This was rapidly changed to ‘Zone 1 & 3’ and I have now obtained examples of this latter version from the giftshop on the Machin Head stamp (this time code MA13 - my example of the Zone 1- 3 stamp is MA14) as well as each of the 6 symbolic flowers stamps as depicted below:-
