 Supposedly the use of the triskelion on Isle of Man devices, including
coins, is because the island was equidistant from three main bodies of
land.
 However the triskelion is common to many ancient cultures, including
Greek, American Indian, and Asian Indian.  I doubt there is any single
origin for this figure.
 I could believe that 1/3 would be an interesting fraction to some
people since it is a large fraction that is not even.
 Then again, I am sure others could arrive at some sexual explanation.

No flames, just added comments. I do shows and hold my reputation in
high regard. I do shows for two reasons. One, I have a well paying day
job and two, I do shows all around the area and get to trade with
people from all around the area. Sure I could just go to the show as a
spectator but not much goes on between attendees. Much more goes on
between vendors and attendees or vendor to vendor. I also now have
more connections for cards then as a vendor then as an attendee.

I object to the classification of all non-store front owner show
vendors as the bad guy. I have met many bad guys and I stay away from
them. I have also met a good bunch of people and hang with them, do
more business with them and help them.

Hi,
	I'd like to know if Manon Rheaume (the female goalie) signed any
cards for this year's Classsic 4-Sport.  Has anybody seen any?  If so, how
many did she sign and what are the going prices for the card?  I would be
VERY interested in obtaining one of these cards, either through straight out
buying one or trading for it.  I'd really appreciate any information.

Thanks!

The 52c stamp covers the US first class postage for letters between 1 and 2 ounces.
They are very common on invitations with reply cards, which is why there are 52c
Love stamps.  Basically the rate is 29c for the first ounce and 23c/oz for the second to something ounce.

The entire Great American Series of 1966 was phased out for the Americana issue
which basically celebrated the US bicentennial.  I doubt that there was any
political intrigue, although Nixon is strange dude.

I'm not tuned in to any of the political ramifications of stamp issuing
policies, although I was under the impression that the USPS was now supposed to
be primarily an independent organization (or at least "self-supporting") with
minimal government control.  As for the rate, it is completely logical, and the
stamp will be very well used by anyone mailing items just over 1 ounce.  The
current rate ic $.29 for the first ounce and $.23 for every ounce (or fraction
of an ounce) thereafter.  Anything weighing between 1 and 2 ounces will require
$.52 postage, so after the $.29 stamp, the $.52 stamp will probably be one of
the most commonly used stamps.
