Japanese Dandelion Stamp


I've collected quite a few postage stamps with Dandelions on for the Dandelion Archive: and here are some from Japan. According to a website about stamps they depict a '
Smaller Green Flower Chafer (Oxycetonia jucunda) on Dandelion' and were issued in 1997. 

Dandelion Postcard

I got this postcard for the Dandelion Archive a while ago - it's by Judges Ltd, a company based in Hastings. It's a funny little image with a beautiful dandelion in flower and in seed, with tiny figures of a frog and a child holding an individual seed each. On the back it is addressed to a Master R Wheway in York from Alison and is postmarked 1937.
