TAAF stamps 2017
Some of the new TAAF stamps issued by LaPoste on January 1. I don't purchase as many as I used to. I usually pass on the mini sheets and higher value stamps. It's just getting too expensive to buy them all each year.
The mineral stamps this year feature a well applied spot varnish. And the "Foraminifera" shaped stamp is heavily embossed.

Antwerp, Belgium
Kittens from Belgium. Making out the postmark was difficult but I'm pretty sure it says "Antwerpen X" which refers to the BPost sorting center in Antwerp.
