Here are a couple of US stamps that are not square.

They are absolutely lovely, the prettiest stamps I have seen. Are they Mother's Day stamps?

 

No, those are the Love stamps for 1999.

 

Valentine's Day?

 

I recently got both of those on a letter from the fireman's ball...lol

 

Maybe he wants to show you his hose??!!!

 

I have a nice Sierra Leone cover that belongs to my Grandpa but its in a bag in my house ( with a couple of albums ) ill scan it later, it always fascinated me when I was younger, not worth anything at all but still something I will always keep since I was so drawn to it when I was younger. In relation to this post it is self adhesive unusually shaped stamps on an airmail cover as far as I remember! Diamonds and everything on the cover West so I think you will be interested!

 

I will indeed and especially interested if some of the stamps are George V

 

gosh I hope not...

 

By coincidence you may get George I and George II, rarely on cover and hardly with diamonds but no KGV.

 

Nothing special as I said!
Two different covers with unusual shaped stamps! Hope you enjoy!

 

Nice, why not collect stamps or covers with Dimonds on ?

I wonder if anyone ever collected just none rectangular stamps?
Can I feel a stockbook coming on?

 

But the stockbook would have to be non-rectagular too......lol

 

If it was circular, how would it open???

 

Once upon a time some poeple collected just triangular stamps and when they found some popularity all different shapes appeared.
