| 80 | Chelonia mydas | Sheet of sixteen identical stamps w/ red design that looks as if it may be woven out of yarn. Tab attached to right side of each stamp. One tab depicts Chelonia mydas. | Each tab inscribed "novozymes". Every other tab w/ WWF Panda logo. | |||||||||||
| SC | 3561 | var. | 1.20 | 09 Feb 07 | Unidentified Plastron | Sheet of twelve stamps and twelve tabs. Left margin of sheet has a drawing of a plastron with inscriptions on it. This is an example of a practice called pyromancy in which bone or a plastron was heated and then used to divine the future. When a plastron was used, it was called plastromancy, a special type of pyromancy. | *** Scott has assigned #3561 to the individual stamps but does not mention the sheet. I have called the sheet #3561 var where "var" stands for variety. There are no turtles on the stamps themselves. | |||||||
