Skunk Stamp

This is a special edition of the 50pence Cabbage Fields stamp which has been ‘perfumed’ with the evocative scent of the Sto Plains - Cabbage. Created by Terry in person, it has to be sealed in a jar clearly labelled with a City Watch forensic Dept seal and evidence label. The idea behind the stamps, as expounded in Making Money was a stamp printed with a cabbage based glue for the use of ex-pats living in far off places. The glue included included a distillate of Kohl Rabi, Cabbage and Cauliflower. Apart from the pungency, the smell is said to have a curious pervasive, flatulent quality that attaches itself to anything nearby. As far as is known, no letter with one of these affixed has ever reached its destination.

Only 20 were produced and but three are said to be in circulation. They are not complete without the jar and evidence label. The evidence label was to reappear in association with the Owlswick Halfpenny forgeries.
