This non-Corsair set of two stamps depict a P-61 Black Widow from Sierra Leone and a B-17 Flying Fortress from the Marshall Islands. The Flying Fortress is a very cool stamp due to the fact that Ezra and I, WIP is an Academy B-17 Flying Fortress the “Memphis Belle”!

Although it’s definately not a Corsair, I really enjoy the depiction of a Defiant battling against a Me109 captured by the artist in a dog fight!
Battle of Britain

The venerable Corsair depicted in a stamp from Granada. It’s over in the Great Marianas. Postage for $2.00 seems high but it’s a given that only collectors would make purchases of this type and topic of a stamp!
Again another dog fight against a Zero, striking a hit!

A Me262 one of my favorite aircrafts to build all the time! If you ask me why, I really enjoy the differnt color (Camoflauge) variations. Plus it looks really cool. I’ve also included my two builds of the Me262, if my memory serves me correctly the Me262 on the ledge is a Revell Kit. The 262 that’s on the wall is made by Trumpeter It’s a visible Me262.
I really enjoy kits that has a see through of the cockpit and other parts of the aircraft!

I’d like to contribute if I may, Tosh. This is one of a couple of Boeing Clipper stamps I have stashed somewhere in the house. I’ve always been a fan of those big flying boats.
I did snag this image off the interwebs however. The stamps I have aren’t mounted, they’re just in a jewelry box, resting.
I encourage contributions, the more the fun, the more the merrier as the saying goes. Those clipper stamps are really nice to own due to the fact that it’s also a Airmail stamp.
The USPS no longer prints airmail stamps. So this and other airmail stamps that fall into this category tend to account for premiums.
A Mitsubishi Zero in action. Seems to me that they’re pulling up after dropping off there payload.
It reads at the very bottom of this stamps that they’re from the Aircraft Carrier Akagi.
The English version of a US Flying Fortress. The mighty Avro Landcaster!
My very modest collection of WWII topical collection of aircraft and modern day super cards
Another non-Corsair or non-WWII aircraft. I just wanted to share this lot of stamps depicting 007 in the very cool idea and concept.
The Lotus Espirit that turns into a submarine. Only in a James Bond movie can something like this happen. The two other vehicle is made exclusively by Lambhorgini They are the Miura and the Countach.
Damn Tosh! That’s a hellavu’ collection. I recall my mother had first mentioned this corsair stamp to me. I didn’t quite realize what she was trying to explain to me about it until your post.
Thanks for sharing!! =]
It’s always my pleasure. There’s a lot of other stamps with WWII aircraft. Thank you for the read and reply!

This was a very cool read Toshi! I have to admit never being very interested in stamp collecting. I am obviously missing out! It is amazing to me that you have found so many different stamps depicting the aircraft that my father-in-law flew off carriers in WW2.
Thank you sir for the read and reply. It’s always a joy for me to be able to share my extracurricular activities. As for yourself, I wouldn’t use the term; " Missing Out" per se.
It’s just another outlet in building WWII aircraft. As for the amount of stamps that depict WWII aircraft, many are from the continent of Africa.
It might not be worth very much as I know I cannot sell these stamps on the secondary market but this is what gets me excited and overjoyed.
Slowly but surely I’ve been able to collect WWII stamps. What you might find interesting is the fact that this amount of stamps that I have in my collection on topical WWII aircraft is not even half the amount I’d like to collect. Once again, Thank you for read and reply!
