Christmas comes early in Cornwall - and Pooh is out!

I have a report of total confusion in a Cornwall PO last week.

A customer was intending to buy Winnie the Pooh stamps for use on Postcrossing postcards - they had all been sent back but the PO sold her - and she used - Wallace and Gromit Christmas stamps 3 weeks early!

Cracking!

Early use is not uncommon but this is very early - if you here of any other early uses please let us know where and when, though the Comment facility below.

  1. 2002 Across the Universe mimi sheets in presentation packs were sold a month early from my local post office.

    I purchased several and used the contents to send early covers to myself and several friends.
