Chris's letters arrive as regularly as clockwork via a synchronistic mechanism. It has happened before that no sooner have I sent a catch-up email to him that his letter arrives the very next day, or in this case just a few hours after I click the send button. Is the Concord still in operation then?
In his exchange letters Chris always protects the stamps with postcards. One of them seems to include the route of how to get to his holiday cabin on the side of a lake. Yes, but let's look at what you sent me.
A bunch of stamps from all over the world - from the African, South American and also European small-sized countries is what Chris usually encloses. About half of the stamps that he sent me this time come from Israel, a country that I don't actively collect but won't say no to.
A good number of them have perforated attachments which look interesting. One in the middle seems to be a stamp featuring Bobby Fisher, the chess player, but that can't be so. The man is known to have had some strong anti-Semitic views.
