Join Allan Smith as he explores the first stamps of the Greek Island of Lemnos from 1912-1913. Allan begins by examining a cover featuring Lemnos's first provisional Turkish stamps, decoding the hand stamp and 1909 cancel. He guides viewers through the process of locating the Scott stamp listings for Greek occupation during the Balkan wars, with a focus on the stamps issued around 1912-1913. Allan provides an in-depth review of the Battleship Averof stamp, which was based out of Lemnos and issued in 1927 as part of the Landscapes Issue. He explains how to differentiate between the original and re-engraved versions of the Battleship Averof stamp. The presentation then shifts back to the first Greek stamps prepared for use on Lemnos, highlighting various overprints and tips for spotting forgeries. Allan also shares the Greek legend of Arkas depicted on the 5 lepta stamp and its connection to the Ursa Minor constellation. He concludes by demonstrating how he identified a philatelic cancel on a block of overprints and showing the 1913 cancels that replaced the Lemnos overprint stamps.
