Description
This sale is in U.S. dollars. If you wish to buy in U.K. pounds and add different items to the cart, log into U.K. eBay and look for the sale of this item in U.K. pounds.Transcamster Bog is a small, landlocked property of two non-continguous plots of peat bog in Caithness, Scotland. The name "Transcamster" comes from the necessity of having to cross Camster to go from one plot to the other.
There's a tradition of British island owners issuing local stamps for their islands, so why not be the first to issue stamps for landlocked property?
Transcamster Bog commemorates the 330th anniversary of the Glorious Revolution. In 1688, William III, Prince of Orange, overthrew his father-in-law King James VII of Scotland (King James II of England and Ireland) and made himself and his wife Mary II joint monarchs of the three kingdoms. The depicts Edward Matthew Lord's painting "The Lords and Commons presenting the Crown to William and Mary in the Banqueting House, 1688", painted in 1867 for Parliament.
For bi-partisanship, Transcamster Bog will also issue a stamp commemorating the 240th anniversary of the Catholic Relief Act of 1778.
The stamp is imperforate and ungummed (requires glue).
