Bioluminescent Life

 Comb Jelly & Mushrooms


Cover Announcement 


This individually hand painted bioluminescent first day cover is the final one in the mini-set of five. Shown on the

five cachets are very colorful renditions of the ever-so-tiny life forms as they make their way through the blackness

of the ocean depths. The fact that they "glow" makes them extremely interesting for marine scientists to observe and

study.


The two featured this time are the comb jelly fish to the upper right and mushrooms to the lower left. Lavendar and

blue are the colors of the former, and green makes the latter very bold. As with the previous four covers, the colors are nicely coordinated with those on the large new stamps.


To bring this unusual bioluminescent set to its conclusion. I'm pleased to announce comb jelly fish and mushrooms.

Collins # O5705 at $15.00.
