Every fish, whale, dolphin, seahorse, squid, killer whale, and shark seems to leap off the page! These are more than mere postage stamps to send a letter from point A to point B. These stamps are moving works of art worthy of being admired.For this book and every other book in my Art of Postage Stamps series, we scanned each stamp at an incredibly high resolution using a specialty art preservation scanner to capture the maximum amount of detail possible. I color corrected images where necessary but left blemishes and edges intact because I find them as fascinating as the artwork. I presented the images in this book as large as possible so that you can soak in every bit of the design and admire the details on the sea creatures and in the backgrounds. – DurnstSome of the fish and whales included:Hammerhead SharkAngel FishGiant SquidKiller WhalesDolphinsSeahorseManta RayCatfishBettaTetraGreat White SharkClown FishHumpback WhaleGoldfishBarracuda…and much moreAbout the Publisher:The CGR Publishing Restoration Workshop uses a vast array of computers and digital scanners to restore, preserve, and enhance the classic works of writers and artists from the 19th century.
