Man

I have no idea who made this stamp but figured you all would love to have one if we ever find out who issued it.


But the boots HAVE to go!

Darcie's Dragon, Knight and Damsel

I think this wonderful set is still available on the Darcie's site. Darcie used to come to the stamp conventions and I have their Cd's and other items. They also has some of the best make and takes going . Either the expense or the crappily run convention keeps them away now.
So why is the knight shorter than the damsel? She could probably whip his ass and then take on the dragon by herself. Whack a dragon with a thorny rose. I am wondering if this may be the same company that made the previous Scot boy and Girl as the art seems similar in some ways. I will have to dig better on Darcie's when I get some time. Now I need the dragon here the most as I have a "thing" for dragons but they have to be red!

Scottie Boy & Girl

Another set of stamps with no identity. I can't even place the "art" as you often can with certain artists and their style. I wanted these because my gramma was from Scotland and I had an outfit my aunt sent me from Aberdeen when I was about 6 or 7 that had a kilt and jacket in the family tartan. My mom gave it away to a little girl across the street but I sure wish I had it today to pass on. It was wool and itchy as all get-out tho.

All that wondering over whether you wear panties under a kilt? I have no clue on the guys-my brothers would not have been caught dead in a kilt (I almost had my son convinced to wear one at his wedding but they went this route instead, which is just gorgeous too. Some of the relatives thought they were bonkers-and the chariot was a golf cart.) But I did wear panties and tights and socks over the tights sometimes. It was cold when I was in 2nd grade!

Miss Tickle Nurse Diamonds Stamp Company

I had never heard of this company until I came across this stamp on an auction on eBay. From what I gather, the Diamonds Stamp Company is long gone. The idea is that somewhere on the wood mounted stamp is a faux diamond. You can see it here on the stethoscope.

Nowadays if you are in hospital, you give yourself your own bath. And heaven help you if you are slow about it. You will be denied any privileges like breakfast. Been there-I ended up sneaking into the shower while hubby kept watch for the wench so I could wash my hair after a week. And I faked the tubby wash by slopping the rags in the sink. This is a throwback to days gone by when the attending nurse has the big "o" just by welding a washcloth and bar of soap. Watch out young boys!

I Like That In A Man

All I know about this stamp is that title and that it looks like Mark Walberg. If you come across it anywhere and can tell me the company (I think it's fairly current and still actively available) please tell me. I would take Markie Mark in real life, too (I know, he's almost married with a bazillion kidlets). But damn! He is cute.

I am getting a feeling this may be a Viva Las Vegas stamp??-make sure you go check them out. Prepare to laugh, snort, pee your pants and poke your best friend as you look. Just keep the kiddies away when you are looking at the naughty ones!

Santa

So how about this one? Is this not the nicest Santa stamp going? I found it online both indexed in color and just the basic black. Nothing to identify it by name, year or company. I don't think I have come across it again in over 3 years. But I want it.

I usually love the old European rustic Santas but this one seemed so Miracle on 42nd Street to me. If you see this in your eBay travels, let me know. Or if you have it, sell to me? Purty pleeze??
